Let's divide 878714 by 23
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 878714.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 23

Step 2:
The number 23 fits into 87 3 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 69 away from 87, we end up with 18.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 188 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 188 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
Deduct 184 from 188 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 23

On to step 4:
47 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 382.0
If we subtract 46 from 47, we get 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 23

On to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3820.0
Deduct 0 from 11 and we're left with 11.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 114 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 114 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38204.0
If we subtract 92 from 114, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
220 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38204.9
If we subtract 207 from 220, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 130 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38204.95
If we subtract 115 from 130, we 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38204.956
Subtract 138 from 150 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 23 fits into 120 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38204.9565
Subtracting 115 from 120 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
50 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38204.95652
Deduct 46 from 50 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 40 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38204.956521
If we take 23 away from 40, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 170 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38204.9565217
Subtracting 161 from 170 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 23 fits into 90 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 38204.95652173
Deduct 69 from 90 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 38204.95652173, with a leftover of 2.1e-08.
