We're dividing 149596 by 23 
We want to divide 149596 by 23.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 23

Step 2:
The number 23 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 14 and we're left with 14.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 149 / 23

On to step 3:
149 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 138 away from 149, we end up with 11.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 115 / 23

On to step 4:
115 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 65.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 115 from 115.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 9 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 650.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 96 / 23

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 96 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6504.0
If we take 92 away from 96, we end up with 4.
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 7:
23 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6504.1
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.

Moving on to step 8:
23 can be fit into 170 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6504.17
If we subtract 161 from 170, we get 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 9:
When dividing 90 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6504.173
Subtracting 69 from 90 leaves us 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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 210 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6504.1739
Subtracting 207 from 210 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
30 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6504.17391
Subtracting 23 from 30 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 70 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6504.173913
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 10 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6504.173913
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 100 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6504.17391304
Deduct 92 from 100 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 6504.17391304 with a remaining 8e-09.
