229940 ÷ 16 
We want to figure out the number of times 229940 can be divided by 16.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 16

Step 2:
If we divide 22 by 16, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 16 away from 22, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 16

Moving on to step 3:
16 goes into 69 4 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 64 from 69 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 59 / 16

Going ahead to step 4:
16 goes into 59 3 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 143.0
If we subtract 48 from 59, we get 11.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 114 / 16

Step 5:
16 goes into 114 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1437.0
If we take 112 away from 114, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 16

Going ahead to step 6:
16 can be fit into 20 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14371.0
Subtracting 16 from 20 leaves us 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 7:
16 goes into 40 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14371.2
If we subtract 32 from 40, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 80 by 16, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14371.25
Deduct 80 from 80 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14371.25
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14371.25
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 14371.25 with a remainder of 0.0.
