Let's divide 462561 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 462561.

Let's proceed to step 1:
23 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 46 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
46 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 46 from 46 to get 0.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 2 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 2 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 23

On to step 4:
When dividing 25 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 201.0
If we take 23 away from 25, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 23

On to step 5:
26 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2011.0
Subtracting 23 from 26 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 23

Step 6:
If we divide 31 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20111.0
Deduct 23 from 31 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 80 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 11.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20111.3
If we take 69 away from 80, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 8:
23 goes into 110 4 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20111.34
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.

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: 20111.347
Subtract 161 from 180 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 190 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 20111.3478
If we take 184 away from 190, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 60 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20111.34782
Subtracting 46 from 60 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
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: 20111.347826
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.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 20 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20111.347826
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20111.34782608
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 184 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 20111.34782608 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
