We look at the division of 968485 by 23 
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 968485.

Moving on to step 1:
23 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 96 / 23

On to step 2:
23 goes into 96 4 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 92 from 96 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 48 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 46 from 48 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
24 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 421.0
If we subtract 23 from 24, we get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
23 goes into 18 0 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4210.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 185 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
23 can be fit into 185 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 42108.0
If we subtract 184 from 185, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
10 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42108.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
23 can be fit into 100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42108.04
Subtracting 92 from 100 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42108.043
Subtracting 69 from 80 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
110 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42108.0434
Subtract 92 from 110 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
180 divided by 23 is 7 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 42108.04347
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 161 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
190 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42108.043478
If we take 184 away from 190, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 60 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42108.0434782
Subtracting 46 from 60 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
140 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42108.04347826
Subtracting 138 from 140 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 42108.04347826 with a balance of 2e-09.
