Let's divide 214451 by 23
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 214451.

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.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 21 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 214 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 214 9 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 207 from 214.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
23 can be fit into 74 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 93.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 69 from 74.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 23

On to step 5:
23 goes into 55 2 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 932.0
If we subtract 46 from 55, we get 9.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 91 / 23

On to step 6:
If we divide 91 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9323.0
If we subtract 69 from 91, 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.

Moving on to step 7:
220 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9323.9
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 207 from 220.
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 8:
If we divide 130 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9323.95
Subtract 115 from 130 to 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9323.956
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.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 23 fits into 120 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9323.9565
Subtract 115 from 120 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
23 goes into 50 2 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 9323.95652
If we take 46 away from 50, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
23 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9323.956521
If we subtract 23 from 40, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
23 can be fit into 170 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9323.9565217
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 161 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9323.95652173
Subtracting 69 from 90 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

The final result is 9323.95652173 with a remainder of 2.1e-08.
