We look at the division of 256594 by 23 
Our goal is to divide 256594 by 23.

Going ahead to step 1:
23 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
23 can be fit into 25 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 23 away from 25, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
26 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 23 away from 26, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 35 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 35 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 111.0
Subtract 23 from 35 to get 12.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 129 / 23

On to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 129 5 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1115.0
Subtracting 115 from 129 leaves us with 14.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 144 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
144 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11156.0
If we take 138 away from 144, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 60 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11156.2
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
23 can be fit into 140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11156.26
Deduct 138 from 140 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 23 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11156.26
If we subtract 0 from 20, we 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.

Step 10:
The number 23 fits into 200 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11156.2608
If we subtract 184 from 200, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11156.26086
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 138 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
220 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11156.260869
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.

On to step 13:
23 can be fit into 130 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11156.2608695
Subtract 115 from 130 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 14:
150 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11156.26086956
Deduct 138 from 150 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 11156.26086956, and the remainder is 1.2e-08.
