Let's divide 347172 by 23
We want to divide 347172 by 23.

On to step 1:
23 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 34 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 23 from 34, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 117 / 23

Step 3:
23 can be fit into 117 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 115 from 117, we get 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 23

Step 4:
23 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 150.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 217 9 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1509.0
Subtract 207 from 217 to get 10.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 102 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 102 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15094.0
Subtract 92 from 102 to 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.

Advancing to step 7:
23 can be fit into 100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15094.4
If we subtract 92 from 100, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 80 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15094.43
Deduct 69 from 80 and we're left with 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 9:
If we divide 110 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15094.434
Deduct 92 from 110 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
23 goes into 180 7 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15094.4347
Subtracting 161 from 180 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
190 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15094.43478
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.

Step 12:
60 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15094.434782
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.

Moving on to step 13:
23 can be fit into 140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15094.4347826
Deduct 138 from 140 and we're left 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 14:
When dividing 20 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 15094.4347826
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 15094.4347826 with a balance of 2e-08.
