46317181 ÷ 278 
Our goal is to divide 46317181 by 278.

Let's proceed to step 1:
278 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 278

Let's proceed to step 2:
278 goes into 46 0 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 46 and we're left with 46.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 463 / 278

Moving on to step 3:
463 divided by 278 is 1 with a remainder of 185.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 185 after subtracting 278 from 463.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 185, then repeat: 1851 / 278

Step 4:
278 goes into 1851 6 times with a remainder of 183.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 1668 from 1851, we get 183.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 183 and repeat the process: 1837 / 278

Going ahead to step 5:
278 goes into 1837 6 times with a remainder of 169.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 166.0
If we take 1668 away from 1837, we end up with 169.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 169, then carry on: 1691 / 278

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 278 fits into 1691 6 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1666.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 1668 from 1691.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 238 / 278

Moving on to step 7:
278 can be fit into 238 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 238.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 16660.0
If we take 0 away from 238, we end up with 238.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 238 and continue with: 2381 / 278

Going ahead to step 8:
2381 divided by 278 is 8 with a remainder of 157.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 166608.0
Subtracting 2224 from 2381 leaves us with 157.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1570, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 1570 by 278, we get 5 and a remainder of 180.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 166608.5
Subtracting 1390 from 1570 leaves us with 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 278 fits into 1800 6 times, leaving a remainder of 132.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 166608.56
If we take 1668 away from 1800, we end up with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 1320 by 278, we get 4 and a remainder of 208.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 166608.564
If we subtract 1112 from 1320, we get 208.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 278 fits into 2080 7 times, leaving a remainder of 134.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 166608.5647
If we take 1946 away from 2080, we end up with 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Step 13:
278 goes into 1340 4 times with a remainder of 228.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 166608.56474
If we subtract 1112 from 1340, we get 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
278 can be fit into 2280 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 166608.564748
Subtract 2224 from 2280 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 15:
If we divide 560 by 278, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 166608.5647482
If we subtract 556 from 560, we get 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 16:
278 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 166608.5647482
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 166608.5647482 with a balance of 4e-08.
