53937974 divided by 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 53937974 can be divided by 23.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 53 / 23

Step 2:
23 can be fit into 53 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 46 from 53, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 79 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 79 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we take 69 away from 79, we end up with 10.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 103 / 23

Step 4:
23 goes into 103 4 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 234.0
If we take 92 away from 103, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 117 / 23

Step 5:
23 goes into 117 5 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2345.0
Subtract 115 from 117 to get 2.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 23

On to step 6:
The number 23 fits into 29 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23451.0
Deduct 23 from 29 and we're left with 6.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 67 / 23

On to step 7:
67 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 234512.0
Deduct 46 from 67 and we're left with 21.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 214 / 23

On to step 8:
If we divide 214 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 7.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2345129.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 207 from 214.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 23 fits into 70 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2345129.3
Deduct 69 from 70 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 10 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2345129.3
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
23 can be fit into 100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2345129.304
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up 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 12:
23 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2345129.3043
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 110 4 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2345129.30434
Subtracting 92 from 110 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 180 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2345129.304347
If we take 161 away from 180, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
23 goes into 190 8 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2345129.3043478
If we subtract 184 from 190, we get 6.
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 16:
If we divide 60 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2345129.30434782
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.

The final result is 2345129.30434782 with a remainder of 1.4e-08.
