We're dividing 888874 by 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 888874 can be divided by 23.

On to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 23

On to step 2:
88 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 69 from 88.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 198 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 198 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 184 from 198, we get 14.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 148 / 23

Step 4:
The number 23 fits into 148 6 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 386.0
Subtracting 138 from 148 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 107 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
107 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3864.0
Subtracting 92 from 107 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 154 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
154 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38646.0
Deduct 138 from 154 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 160 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38646.6
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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 220 by 23, we get 9 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38646.69
If we subtract 207 from 220, we 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.

Advancing to step 9:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38646.695
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.

On to step 10:
23 can be fit into 150 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 38646.6956
Subtracting 138 from 150 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
120 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38646.69565
Subtracting 115 from 120 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 50 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38646.695652
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 46 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
23 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38646.6956521
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 170 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38646.69565217
If we subtract 161 from 170, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Our division results in 38646.69565217 with a remaining 9e-09.
