Let's divide 23188754 by 278
We want to divide 23188754 by 278.

Step 1:
278 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 278

On to step 2:
23 divided by 278 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 23 leaves us with 23.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 231 / 278

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 231 by 278, we get 0 with a remainder of 231.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 231 to get 231.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 231 and repeat the process: 2318 / 278

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 2318 by 278, we get 8 with a remainder of 94.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 2224 from 2318 leaves us with 94.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 94 and continue with: 948 / 278

Step 5:
If we divide 948 by 278, we get 3 and a remainder of 114.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83.0
Subtract 834 from 948 to get 114.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 114 and continue with: 1147 / 278

On to step 6:
1147 divided by 278 is 4 with a remainder of 35.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 834.0
Subtract 1112 from 1147 to get 35.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 355 / 278

Let's proceed to step 7:
355 divided by 278 is 1 with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8341.0
The remainder is 77 after subtracting 278 from 355.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 77 and continue: 774 / 278

Step 8:
278 can be fit into 774 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 218.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 83412.0
Subtract 556 from 774 to get 218.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
278 goes into 2180 7 times with a remainder of 234.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83412.7
Deduct 1946 from 2180 and we're left with 234.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2340, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 2340 by 278, we get 8 and a remainder of 116.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83412.78
Subtracting 2224 from 2340 leaves us with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
278 goes into 1160 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83412.784
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 1112 from 1160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 278 fits into 480 1 times, leaving a remainder of 202.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 83412.7841
If we subtract 278 from 480, we get 202.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2020, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 278 fits into 2020 7 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83412.78417
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 1946 from 2020.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
278 goes into 740 2 times with a remainder of 184.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 83412.784172
The remainder is 184 after subtracting 556 from 740.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

Step 15:
If we divide 1840 by 278, we get 6 and a remainder of 172.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83412.7841726
Deduct 1668 from 1840 and we're left with 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
278 goes into 1720 6 times with a remainder of 52.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 83412.78417266
Subtract 1668 from 1720 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 83412.78417266 and a remainder of 5.2e-08.
