We look at the division of 23740187 by 271 
Our goal is to divide 23740187 by 271.

Moving on to step 1:
271 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 271

Let's proceed to step 2:
271 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 237 / 271

Let's proceed to step 3:
271 can be fit into 237 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 237.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 237, we get 237.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 237, then repeat: 2374 / 271

Step 4:
If we divide 2374 by 271, we get 8 and a remainder of 206.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 2168 from 2374 and we're left with 206.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 206, then repeat: 2060 / 271

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 2060 by 271, we get 7 with a remainder of 163.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 87.0
Deduct 1897 from 2060 and we're left with 163.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 163, then repeat: 1631 / 271

Let's proceed to step 6:
1631 divided by 271 is 6 with a remainder of 5.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 876.0
Subtract 1626 from 1631 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 271

Step 7:
The number 271 fits into 58 0 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8760.0
If we subtract 0 from 58, we get 58.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 58 and continue: 587 / 271

Moving on to step 8:
271 can be fit into 587 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 87602.0
Subtract 542 from 587 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
271 can be fit into 450 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 179.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 87602.1
Subtracting 271 from 450 leaves us with 179.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1790, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
271 goes into 1790 6 times with a remainder of 164.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 87602.16
The remainder is 164 after subtracting 1626 from 1790.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
271 can be fit into 1640 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 87602.166
If we subtract 1626 from 1640, we 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.

The quotient of the division is 87602.166, and the remainder is 0.0014.
