23980621 ÷ 878 
We want to divide 23980621 by 878.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 878, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 878

On to step 2:
The number 878 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 23 leaves us with 23.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 239 / 878

Step 3:
239 divided by 878 is 0 with a remainder of 239.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 239 leaves us with 239.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 239, then carry on: 2398 / 878

Moving on to step 4:
The number 878 fits into 2398 2 times, leaving a remainder of 642.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 1756 from 2398 and we're left with 642.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 642 and continue with: 6420 / 878

On to step 5:
When dividing 6420 by 878, we get 7 with a remainder of 274.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we take 6146 away from 6420, we end up with 274.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 274 and continue: 2746 / 878

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 878 fits into 2746 3 times, leaving a remainder of 112.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 273.0
Deduct 2634 from 2746 and we're left with 112.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 112, then repeat: 1122 / 878

Let's proceed to step 7:
1122 divided by 878 is 1 with a remainder of 244.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2731.0
If we take 878 away from 1122, we end up with 244.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 244, then repeat: 2441 / 878

Moving on to step 8:
2441 divided by 878 is 2 with a remainder of 685.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27312.0
Subtracting 1756 from 2441 leaves us with 685.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6850, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 6850 by 878, we get 7 with a remainder of 704.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27312.7
Subtract 6146 from 6850 to get 704.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7040, and continue the process.

Step 10:
878 can be fit into 7040 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27312.78
Subtract 7024 from 7040 to 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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 878 fits into 160 0 times, leaving a remainder of 160.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27312.78
Subtracting 0 from 160 leaves us with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 878 fits into 1600 1 times, leaving a remainder of 722.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27312.7801
Subtract 878 from 1600 to get 722.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
878 can be fit into 7220 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 196.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27312.78018
Subtract 7024 from 7220 to get 196.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 1960 by 878, we get 2 with a remainder of 204.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27312.780182
If we subtract 1756 from 1960, we get 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Step 15:
878 goes into 2040 2 times with a remainder of 284.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27312.7801822
Subtract 1756 from 2040 to get 284.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2840, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 27312.7801822 with a balance of 2.84e-06.
