We look at the division of 296407 by 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 296407 can be divided by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
23 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
23 can be fit into 29 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 23 from 29 to get 6.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 66 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
66 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 20.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 46 from 66 to get 20.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 204 / 23

On to step 4:
204 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 128.0
If we subtract 184 from 204, we get 20.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 200 / 23

Step 5:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1288.0
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left with 16.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 167 / 23

Step 6:
23 can be fit into 167 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12887.0
Deduct 161 from 167 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
60 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12887.2
Deduct 46 from 60 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
23 can be fit into 140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12887.26
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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 23 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12887.26
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 23 fits into 200 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12887.2608
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 23 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12887.26086
Subtracting 138 from 160 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 220 by 23, we get 9 with a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12887.260869
Subtracting 207 from 220 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 130 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12887.2608695
Deduct 115 from 130 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
23 goes into 150 6 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12887.26086956
If we take 138 away from 150, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12887.26086956 with a balance of 1.2e-08.
