We're dividing 45971598 by 312 
Let's see how many times 312 fits into 45971598.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 312 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 45 / 312

Step 2:
If we divide 45 by 312, we get 0 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 45, we end up with 45.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 459 / 312

Moving on to step 3:
459 divided by 312 is 1 with a remainder of 147.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 312 from 459, we get 147.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 147 and continue: 1477 / 312

Let's proceed to step 4:
312 goes into 1477 4 times with a remainder of 229.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 1248 from 1477, we get 229.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 229, then carry on: 2291 / 312

Step 5:
When dividing 2291 by 312, we get 7 with a remainder of 107.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 147.0
Subtract 2184 from 2291 to get 107.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 107, then repeat: 1075 / 312

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 1075 by 312, we get 3 with a remainder of 139.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1473.0
Subtracting 936 from 1075 leaves us with 139.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 139 and repeat the process: 1399 / 312

Let's proceed to step 7:
1399 divided by 312 is 4 with a remainder of 151.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14734.0
Subtracting 1248 from 1399 leaves us with 151.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 151 and continue: 1518 / 312

On to step 8:
312 goes into 1518 4 times with a remainder of 270.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 147344.0
The remainder is 270 after subtracting 1248 from 1518.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 2700 by 312, we get 8 with a remainder of 204.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 147344.8
Subtract 2496 from 2700 to get 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Step 10:
312 goes into 2040 6 times with a remainder of 168.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 147344.86
If we take 1872 away from 2040, we end up with 168.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 312 fits into 1680 5 times, leaving a remainder of 120.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 147344.865
If we subtract 1560 from 1680, we get 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 312 fits into 1200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 264.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 147344.8653
The remainder is 264 after subtracting 936 from 1200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

Step 13:
2640 divided by 312 is 8 with a remainder of 144.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 147344.86538
Subtracting 2496 from 2640 leaves us with 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 1440 by 312, we get 4 with a remainder of 192.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 147344.865384
If we take 1248 away from 1440, we end up with 192.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1920, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
312 goes into 1920 6 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 147344.8653846
If we subtract 1872 from 1920, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
When dividing 480 by 312, we get 1 with a remainder of 168.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 147344.86538461
The remainder is 168 after subtracting 312 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

The final result is 147344.86538461 with a remainder of 1.68e-07.
