We divide 298605 by 23
Our goal is to divide 298605 by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 23 from 29 to get 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
23 goes into 68 2 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 46 from 68 and we're left with 22.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 226 / 23

Step 4:
If we divide 226 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 19.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 129.0
If we take 207 away from 226, we end up with 19.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 190 / 23

Step 5:
23 can be fit into 190 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1298.0
Deduct 184 from 190 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 65 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
23 goes into 65 2 times with a remainder of 19.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12982.0
Subtracting 46 from 65 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12982.8
If we take 184 away from 190, 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.

On to step 8:
60 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12982.82
If we subtract 46 from 60, we 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 9:
If we divide 140 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12982.826
If we take 138 away from 140, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
23 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12982.826
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12982.82608
If we take 184 away from 200, 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.

Advancing to step 12:
23 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12982.826086
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
23 goes into 220 9 times with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12982.8260869
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 207 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12982.82608695
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 12982.82608695 with a balance of 1.5e-08.
