983143 ÷ 23 
Our goal is to divide 983143 by 23.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 23

Step 2:
23 goes into 98 4 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 92 from 98 and we're left with 6.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 63 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
23 can be fit into 63 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we subtract 46 from 63, we get 17.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 171 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 23 fits into 171 7 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 427.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 161 from 171.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 104 / 23

On to step 5:
104 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4274.0
Deduct 92 from 104 and we're left with 12.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 123 / 23

Moving on to step 6:
123 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 8.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42745.0
Deduct 115 from 123 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 80 3 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42745.3
Subtract 69 from 80 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 110 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42745.34
If we take 92 away from 110, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 23 fits into 180 7 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42745.347
Deduct 161 from 180 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
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: 42745.3478
Subtract 184 from 190 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
60 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42745.34782
Subtracting 46 from 60 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
23 can be fit into 140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 42745.347826
Deduct 138 from 140 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 20 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42745.347826
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us 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.

On to step 14:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42745.34782608
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.

After the division, we end up with 42745.34782608 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
