988896 ÷ 23 
We want to divide 988896 by 23.

On to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
98 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 92 from 98 to get 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 68 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we subtract 46 from 68, we get 22.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 228 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 can be fit into 228 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 429.0
If we subtract 207 from 228, we get 21.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 219 / 23

Step 5:
219 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4299.0
Subtracting 207 from 219 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 126 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 126 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42995.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 115 from 126.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 110 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42995.4
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.

Step 8:
23 can be fit into 180 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42995.47
If we take 161 away from 180, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
190 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 42995.478
If we subtract 184 from 190, we 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.

On to step 10:
23 can be fit into 60 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42995.4782
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 46 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 11:
140 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42995.47826
Subtracting 138 from 140 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
20 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42995.47826
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 13:
200 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 42995.4782608
If we subtract 184 from 200, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 14:
23 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42995.47826086
Subtracting 138 from 160 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 42995.47826086 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
