840946 ÷ 6 
We want to divide 840946 by 6.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 6, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 6 away from 8, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 6

On to step 2:
The number 6 fits into 24 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 24 from 24 to get 0.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 0 / 6

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 6 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 140.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 6

On to step 4:
If we divide 9 by 6, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1401.0
Deduct 6 from 9 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 34 / 6

Let's proceed to step 5:
6 can be fit into 34 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14015.0
If we subtract 30 from 34, we get 4.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 46 / 6

Moving on to step 6:
6 goes into 46 7 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 140157.0
If we take 42 away from 46, 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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 40 by 6, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 140157.6
Subtracting 36 from 40 leaves us 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 8:
40 divided by 6 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 140157.66
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 140157.66 with a remainder of 0.004.
