Let's divide 131206 by 46
Our goal is to divide 131206 by 46.

Going ahead to step 1:
46 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 13 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 13 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 13.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 13, we end up with 13.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 131 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 131 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 39.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 92 from 131, we get 39.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 392 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
46 goes into 392 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 368 from 392 leaves us with 24.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 240 / 46

Step 5:
240 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 285.0
If we take 230 away from 240, we end up with 10.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 106 / 46

Step 6:
106 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2852.0
If we subtract 92 from 106, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 140 by 46, we get 3 and a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2852.3
If we take 138 away from 140, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 46 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2852.3
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
200 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2852.304
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 184 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
160 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2852.3043
Subtracting 138 from 160 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 11:
46 goes into 220 4 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2852.30434
If we take 184 away from 220, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
46 goes into 360 7 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2852.304347
If we take 322 away from 360, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
46 goes into 380 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2852.3043478
If we take 368 away from 380, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 120 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2852.30434782
Subtract 92 from 120 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2852.30434782 and a remainder of 2.8e-08.
