We divide 804997 by 23
We want to figure out the number of times 804997 can be divided by 23.

Step 1:
The number 23 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 80 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
23 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 69 from 80 leaves us with 11.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 114 / 23

Step 3:
23 goes into 114 4 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 92 from 114.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 229 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
229 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 349.0
Deduct 207 from 229 and we're left with 22.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 229 / 23

Step 5:
The number 23 fits into 229 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3499.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 207 from 229.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 227 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
23 goes into 227 9 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 34999.0
Deduct 207 from 227 and we're left with 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 7:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34999.8
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
23 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34999.86
Subtract 138 from 160 to get 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 9:
When dividing 220 by 23, we get 9 with a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34999.869
If we take 207 away from 220, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 10:
23 goes into 130 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 34999.8695
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 115 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34999.86956
Subtract 138 from 150 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 120 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34999.869565
Deduct 115 from 120 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
23 can be fit into 50 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 34999.8695652
Deduct 46 from 50 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34999.86956521
Subtracting 23 from 40 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 34999.86956521 with a balance of 1.7e-08.
