Let's divide 879249 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 879249.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
23 goes into 87 3 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 69 from 87 to get 18.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 189 / 23

On to step 3:
When dividing 189 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 184 from 189, we get 5.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 52 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 382.0
Subtracting 46 from 52 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 64 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 64 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3822.0
Deduct 46 from 64 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 189 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 189 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 5.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38228.0
If we subtract 184 from 189, we 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.

Step 7:
23 can be fit into 50 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38228.2
Subtracting 46 from 50 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.

On to step 8:
23 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 38228.21
If we subtract 23 from 40, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 170 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38228.217
Subtract 161 from 170 to 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
23 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38228.2173
If we take 69 away from 90, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
23 goes into 210 9 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38228.21739
If we take 207 away from 210, we end up 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 12:
If we divide 30 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38228.217391
Subtract 23 from 30 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 70 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38228.2173913
Deduct 69 from 70 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
10 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38228.2173913
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Our division results in 38228.2173913 with a remaining 1e-08.
