We divide 500221 by 23
Our goal is to divide 500221 by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 23

Step 2:
If we divide 50 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 46 from 50.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 23

On to step 3:
If we divide 40 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtracting 23 from 40 leaves us with 17.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 172 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
23 can be fit into 172 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 217.0
Subtract 161 from 172 to get 11.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 112 / 23

Step 5:
23 can be fit into 112 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2174.0
Subtracting 92 from 112 leaves us with 20.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 201 / 23

Step 6:
If we divide 201 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21748.0
Deduct 184 from 201 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 170 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21748.7
Deduct 161 from 170 and we're left 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 8:
23 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21748.73
If we subtract 69 from 90, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 9:
23 can be fit into 210 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21748.739
Subtracting 207 from 210 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 30 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21748.7391
Deduct 23 from 30 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 70 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21748.73913
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 69 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21748.73913
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
23 goes into 100 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21748.7391304
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.

Moving on to step 14:
23 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21748.73913043
If we subtract 69 from 80, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 21748.73913043, and the remainder is 1.1e-08.
