245901 divided by 23 
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 245901.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
23 can be fit into 24 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 23 from 24 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 23

On to step 3:
When dividing 15 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 159 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
159 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 106.0
If we subtract 138 from 159, we get 21.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 210 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
23 can be fit into 210 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1069.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 207 from 210.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 23

On to step 6:
23 can be fit into 31 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10691.0
If we take 23 away from 31, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
23 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10691.3
Subtract 69 from 80 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 110 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10691.34
Subtracting 92 from 110 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 180 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 10691.347
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.

Moving on to step 10:
23 can be fit into 190 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10691.3478
Deduct 184 from 190 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 23 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10691.34782
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 140 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10691.347826
If we take 138 away from 140, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 20 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10691.347826
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 200 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10691.34782608
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 10691.34782608 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
