We divide 428878 by 46
We want to divide 428878 by 46.

On to step 1:
46 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 46

Let's proceed to step 2:
46 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 0 from 42.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 428 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
46 can be fit into 428 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 414 from 428 and we're left with 14.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 148 / 46

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 46 fits into 148 3 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 93.0
If we subtract 138 from 148, we get 10.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 107 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 107 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 932.0
If we subtract 92 from 107, we get 15.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 158 / 46

Moving on to step 6:
The number 46 fits into 158 3 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9323.0
If we take 138 away from 158, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
46 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9323.4
Subtract 184 from 200 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
46 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9323.43
If we subtract 138 from 160, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
220 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9323.434
Subtract 184 from 220 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
46 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9323.4347
Subtract 322 from 360 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 11:
46 goes into 380 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9323.43478
If we subtract 368 from 380, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 12:
120 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9323.434782
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 92 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 46 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9323.4347826
If we take 276 away from 280, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
46 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9323.4347826
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 9323.4347826, and the remainder is 4e-08.
