We divide 688423 by 46
Our goal is to divide 688423 by 46.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 46 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 68 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
The number 46 fits into 68 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 46 from 68 to get 22.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 228 / 46

On to step 3:
The number 46 fits into 228 4 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 184 from 228 to get 44.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 444 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
46 can be fit into 444 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149.0
Deduct 414 from 444 and we're left with 30.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 302 / 46

Advancing to step 5:
302 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1496.0
Subtract 276 from 302 to get 26.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 263 / 46

Step 6:
If we divide 263 by 46, we get 5 and a remainder of 33.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14965.0
Subtract 230 from 263 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 46 fits into 330 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14965.7
Deduct 322 from 330 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.

Step 8:
The number 46 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14965.71
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 340 by 46, we get 7 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14965.717
Subtract 322 from 340 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 180 by 46, we get 3 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 14965.7173
Subtract 138 from 180 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 420 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14965.71739
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 414 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
46 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14965.717391
If we take 46 away from 60, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
46 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14965.7173913
Subtract 138 from 140 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 20 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14965.7173913
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14965.7173913 and a remainder of 2e-08.
