178496 divided by 23 
We want to divide 178496 by 23.

Step 1:
23 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 178 / 23

Step 3:
23 can be fit into 178 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 161 from 178 leaves us with 17.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 174 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 23 fits into 174 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 77.0
Subtracting 161 from 174 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 139 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
23 can be fit into 139 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 776.0
If we take 138 away from 139, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 16 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7760.0
If we take 0 away from 16, 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.

Step 7:
If we divide 160 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7760.6
If we take 138 away from 160, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
23 can be fit into 220 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7760.69
Subtracting 207 from 220 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 9:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7760.695
Subtracting 115 from 130 leaves us 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:
150 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7760.6956
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.

On to step 11:
120 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7760.69565
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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 50 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7760.695652
If we take 46 away from 50, 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7760.6956521
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.

Step 14:
If we divide 170 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7760.69565217
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 7760.69565217, and the remainder is 9e-09.
