We look at the division of 7138899 by 23 
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 7138899.

Let's proceed to step 1:
23 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
71 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 69 from 71 to get 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 23

Step 3:
The number 23 fits into 23 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtracting 23 from 23 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
23 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 310.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 88 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3103.0
If we subtract 69 from 88, we get 19.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 199 / 23

Step 6:
23 can be fit into 199 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 31038.0
Deduct 184 from 199 and we're left with 15.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 159 / 23

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 159 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 21.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 310386.0
If we subtract 138 from 159, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 23 fits into 210 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 310386.9
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 207 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
23 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 310386.91
If we take 23 away from 30, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
23 goes into 70 3 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 310386.913
Deduct 69 from 70 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 10 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 310386.913
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 12:
23 goes into 100 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 310386.91304
Subtracting 92 from 100 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 80 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 310386.913043
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 69 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 110 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 310386.9130434
Subtract 92 from 110 to get 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 15:
The number 23 fits into 180 7 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 310386.91304347
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 310386.91304347 with a balance of 1.9e-08.
