23847493 ÷ 284 
We want to figure out the number of times 23847493 can be divided by 284.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 284, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 23 / 284

Moving on to step 2:
The number 284 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 23, we get 23.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 238 / 284

Step 3:
238 divided by 284 is 0 with a remainder of 238.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 238 and we're left with 238.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 238 and repeat the process: 2384 / 284

Advancing to step 4:
284 goes into 2384 8 times with a remainder of 112.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 2272 from 2384, we get 112.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 112 and continue with: 1127 / 284

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 284 fits into 1127 3 times, leaving a remainder of 275.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83.0
If we subtract 852 from 1127, we get 275.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 275, then repeat: 2754 / 284

On to step 6:
2754 divided by 284 is 9 with a remainder of 198.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 839.0
Deduct 2556 from 2754 and we're left with 198.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 198, then repeat: 1989 / 284

Going ahead to step 7:
284 can be fit into 1989 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8397.0
Subtract 1988 from 1989 to get 1.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 13 / 284

Let's proceed to step 8:
284 can be fit into 13 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 83970.0
Deduct 0 from 13 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
130 divided by 284 is 0 with a remainder of 130.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83970.0
The remainder is 130 after subtracting 0 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 1300 by 284, we get 4 and a remainder of 164.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 83970.04
Subtract 1136 from 1300 to get 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 284 fits into 1640 5 times, leaving a remainder of 220.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 83970.045
Deduct 1420 from 1640 and we're left with 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 2200 by 284, we get 7 with a remainder of 212.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 83970.0457
If we take 1988 away from 2200, we end up with 212.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2120, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
284 can be fit into 2120 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 132.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 83970.04577
Subtract 1988 from 2120 to get 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 83970.04577 with a remaining 0.000132.
