We're dividing 231086 by 16 
We're looking to find how many times 16 goes into 231086.

Advancing to step 1:
16 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 16

Step 2:
If we divide 23 by 16, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 16 from 23 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 71 / 16

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 71 by 16, we get 4 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 64 from 71, we get 7.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 70 / 16

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 70 by 16, we get 4 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 144.0
Subtract 64 from 70 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 16

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 68 by 16, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1444.0
If we take 64 away from 68, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 16

On to step 6:
16 goes into 46 2 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14442.0
If we subtract 32 from 46, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 140 by 16, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14442.8
If we take 128 away from 140, we end up 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 8:
The number 16 fits into 120 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14442.87
If we subtract 112 from 120, 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 9:
If we divide 80 by 16, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 14442.875
Subtracting 80 from 80 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
16 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14442.875
Deduct 0 from 0 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.

Moving on to step 11:
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: 14442.875
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.

After the division, we end up with 14442.875 and a remainder of 0.0.
