We look at the division of 858938 by 23 
We want to divide 858938 by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
23 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 85 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 85 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 69 from 85 and we're left with 16.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 168 / 23

On to step 3:
23 goes into 168 7 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37.0
Deduct 161 from 168 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 79 / 23

Step 4:
79 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 373.0
If we take 69 away from 79, we end up with 10.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 103 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 103 4 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3734.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 92 from 103.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 23

Step 6:
If we divide 118 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 3.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37345.0
Subtract 115 from 118 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
23 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37345.1
Subtracting 23 from 30 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
23 goes into 70 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37345.13
If we take 69 away from 70, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
23 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 37345.13
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 100 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37345.1304
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 92 from 100.
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 11:
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: 37345.13043
Subtracting 69 from 80 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 12:
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: 37345.130434
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 92 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
180 divided by 23 is 7 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37345.1304347
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 161 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
190 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37345.13043478
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 37345.13043478 with a balance of 6e-09.
