We look at the division of 238917 by 1 
Our goal is to divide 238917 by 1.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 1, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 2 from 2, we get 0.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 3 / 1

On to step 2:
1 can be fit into 3 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23.0
Deduct 3 from 3 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 1

On to step 3:
When dividing 8 by 1, we get 8 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 238.0
If we subtract 8 from 8, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 9 / 1

Let's proceed to step 4:
9 divided by 1 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2389.0
If we subtract 9 from 9, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 1 / 1

Advancing to step 5:
1 goes into 1 1 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23891.0
If we take 1 away from 1, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 7 / 1

Advancing to step 6:
The number 1 fits into 7 7 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 238917.0
If we subtract 7 from 7, we 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.

On to step 7:
0 divided by 1 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 238917.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 1 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 238917.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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 238917.0 and a remainder of 0.0.
