We divide 234897 by 45
Let's see how many times 45 fits into 234897.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 45 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 45

Advancing to step 2:
The number 45 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 23, we get 23.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 234 / 45

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 234 by 45, we get 5 and a remainder of 9.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 225 from 234.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 45

Step 4:
98 divided by 45 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we take 90 away from 98, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 89 / 45

Going ahead to step 5:
89 divided by 45 is 1 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 521.0
Subtracting 45 from 89 leaves us with 44.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 447 / 45

Moving on to step 6:
447 divided by 45 is 9 with a remainder of 42.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5219.0
Deduct 405 from 447 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 45 fits into 420 9 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5219.9
Subtract 405 from 420 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
45 goes into 150 3 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5219.93
Subtracting 135 from 150 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
150 divided by 45 is 3 with a remainder of 15.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5219.933
Subtract 135 from 150 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5219.933, and the remainder is 0.0015.
