We look at the division of 999477 by 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 999477 can be divided by 23.

On to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 99 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 23 fits into 99 4 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 92 away from 99, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 79 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
23 can be fit into 79 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we take 69 away from 79, we end up with 10.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 104 / 23

Step 4:
104 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 434.0
If we take 92 away from 104, we end up with 12.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 127 / 23

Step 5:
23 can be fit into 127 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4345.0
If we take 115 away from 127, we end up with 12.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 23

On to step 6:
When dividing 127 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43455.0
If we take 115 away from 127, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
23 goes into 120 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43455.5
Subtract 115 from 120 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 8:
50 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43455.52
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 46 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
40 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43455.521
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 23 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 170 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43455.5217
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 11:
When dividing 90 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43455.52173
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 210 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43455.521739
Subtract 207 from 210 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
23 can be fit into 30 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43455.5217391
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.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 70 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 43455.52173913
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.

The final outcome is 43455.52173913, with a leftover of 1e-09.
