We look at the division of 154597 by 23 
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 154597.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 15 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 15 leaves us with 15.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 154 / 23

Step 3:
23 goes into 154 6 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 138 from 154 leaves us with 16.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 165 / 23

On to step 4:
23 can be fit into 165 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 67.0
Subtract 161 from 165 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
49 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 672.0
Subtract 46 from 49 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 23

On to step 6:
23 can be fit into 37 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6721.0
Subtracting 23 from 37 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 140 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6721.6
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.

Step 8:
20 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6721.6
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.

Moving on to step 9:
23 goes into 200 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6721.608
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.

Moving on to step 10:
160 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6721.6086
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.

On to step 11:
220 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6721.60869
Subtracting 207 from 220 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
23 can be fit into 130 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6721.608695
If we take 115 away from 130, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 13:
23 goes into 150 6 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6721.6086956
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 138 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 120 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6721.60869565
If we subtract 115 from 120, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6721.60869565 with a balance of 5e-09.
