916842 divided by 23 
We want to divide 916842 by 23.

Step 1:
If we divide 9 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 91 / 23

Step 2:
The number 23 fits into 91 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 69 from 91 to get 22.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 226 / 23

Step 3:
23 goes into 226 9 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 207 from 226 leaves us with 19.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 198 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 198 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 398.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 184 from 198.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 144 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 144 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3986.0
If we subtract 138 from 144, we get 6.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 62 / 23

On to step 6:
23 can be fit into 62 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39862.0
Subtract 46 from 62 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 7:
23 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39862.6
If we subtract 138 from 160, 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 220 by 23, we get 9 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 39862.69
Deduct 207 from 220 and we're left 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 9:
If we divide 130 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 39862.695
Deduct 115 from 130 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39862.6956
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 138 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
23 can be fit into 120 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39862.69565
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
50 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 39862.695652
If we subtract 46 from 50, we get 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 13:
If we divide 40 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39862.6956521
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 14:
23 goes into 170 7 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 39862.69565217
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.

The quotient of the division is 39862.69565217, and the remainder is 9e-09.
