We're dividing 381959 by 46 
We're looking to find how many times 46 goes into 381959.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 46 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
46 goes into 38 0 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 38 and we're left with 38.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 381 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 381 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 368 away from 381, we end up with 13.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 139 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
46 goes into 139 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83.0
If we take 138 away from 139, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 46

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 15 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 830.0
If we take 0 away from 15, we end up with 15.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 159 / 46

On to step 6:
46 goes into 159 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8303.0
If we subtract 138 from 159, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 46 fits into 210 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8303.4
If we subtract 184 from 210, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 46 fits into 260 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8303.45
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 230 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
46 can be fit into 300 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8303.456
Subtracting 276 from 300 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 46 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8303.4565
If we take 230 away from 240, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 100 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8303.45652
Deduct 92 from 100 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
80 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8303.456521
Deduct 46 from 80 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
46 can be fit into 340 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8303.4565217
Subtracting 322 from 340 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 46 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8303.45652173
If we take 138 away from 180, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8303.45652173 with a remaining 4.2e-08.
