We divide 286899 by 23
Our goal is to divide 286899 by 23.

Advancing to step 1:
2 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 23

Step 2:
If we divide 28 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 23 from 28.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 56 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 56 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 46 from 56 and we're left with 10.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 108 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 goes into 108 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 124.0
Deduct 92 from 108 and we're left with 16.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 169 / 23

Step 5:
23 goes into 169 7 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1247.0
If we take 161 away from 169, we end up with 8.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
23 goes into 89 3 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12473.0
Subtracting 69 from 89 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12473.8
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 23 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12473.86
If we subtract 138 from 160, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
23 can be fit into 220 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12473.869
Subtract 207 from 220 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12473.8695
If we subtract 115 from 130, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 150 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12473.86956
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 138 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
120 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12473.869565
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 115 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 50 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12473.8695652
If we subtract 46 from 50, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12473.86956521
Subtracting 23 from 40 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12473.86956521 with a remaining 1.7e-08.
