We divide 39729 by 23
Our goal is to divide 39729 by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
3 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 39 / 23

Step 2:
If we divide 39 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 23 from 39.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 167 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 167 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 161 from 167.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
23 goes into 62 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 172.0
Subtracting 46 from 62 leaves us with 16.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 169 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
23 goes into 169 7 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1727.0
If we take 161 away from 169, 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.

Step 6:
80 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1727.3
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.

Advancing to step 7:
23 can be fit into 110 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1727.34
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 92 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
23 can be fit into 180 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1727.347
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
23 can be fit into 190 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1727.3478
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 184 from 190.
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 10:
60 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1727.34782
Deduct 46 from 60 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1727.347826
Subtract 138 from 140 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 20 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1727.347826
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1727.34782608
If we take 184 away from 200, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1727.34782608 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
