How to work it out

Ask how many times 12 fits into 46. 12 × 3 = 36, and 12 × 4 = 48 is too big, so 12 goes into 46 exactly 3 times with 46 − 36 = 10 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 10 is 10/12 of another 12, and 10 ÷ 12 = about 0.8333. So 46 ÷ 12 = 3 + 0.8333 = about 3.8333.
