171471 divided by 23 
We want to divide 171471 by 23.

Advancing to step 1:
23 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 171 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 171 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 161 from 171 leaves us with 10.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 104 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 104 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74.0
If we take 92 away from 104, we end up with 12.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 127 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
127 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 745.0
If we take 115 away from 127, we end up with 12.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 121 / 23

Step 6:
23 goes into 121 5 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7455.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 115 from 121.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 60 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7455.2
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 46 from 60.
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 8:
23 can be fit into 140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7455.26
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
23 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7455.26
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 200 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7455.2608
Subtract 184 from 200 to get 16.
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 11:
160 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7455.26086
Deduct 138 from 160 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 220 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7455.260869
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.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 130 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7455.2608695
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.

Step 14:
When dividing 150 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7455.26086956
Subtracting 138 from 150 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 7455.26086956 and a remainder of 1.2e-08.
