We're dividing 147898 by 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 147898 can be divided by 23.

On to step 1:
23 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 23

Step 2:
23 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 147 / 23

On to step 3:
147 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 138 from 147 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
The number 23 fits into 98 4 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 64.0
If we subtract 92 from 98, we get 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 23

On to step 5:
If we divide 69 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 0.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 643.0
Subtracting 69 from 69 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 23

On to step 6:
8 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6430.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 80 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6430.3
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 69 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 110 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6430.34
Subtracting 92 from 110 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
23 can be fit into 180 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6430.347
Subtract 161 from 180 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 190 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6430.3478
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 184 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 60 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6430.34782
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 12:
The number 23 fits into 140 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6430.347826
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 138 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
20 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6430.347826
Subtract 0 from 20 to 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.

On to step 14:
When dividing 200 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6430.34782608
Subtracting 184 from 200 leaves us 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.

The final result is 6430.34782608 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
