We divide 899968 by 23
We want to figure out the number of times 899968 can be divided by 23.

Step 1:
23 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 89 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
23 goes into 89 3 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 69 from 89 and we're left with 20.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 209 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
23 goes into 209 9 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we take 207 away from 209, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 29 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 391.0
Subtracting 23 from 29 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 66 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 66 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3912.0
If we subtract 46 from 66, we get 20.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 208 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 23 fits into 208 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 39129.0
If we subtract 207 from 208, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
23 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 39129.0
Subtract 0 from 10 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 23 fits into 100 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39129.04
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 9:
80 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 39129.043
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 69 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
110 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 39129.0434
If we take 92 away from 110, we end up 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 11:
The number 23 fits into 180 7 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 39129.04347
If we take 161 away from 180, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 190 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 39129.043478
Subtract 184 from 190 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 39129.0434782
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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 140 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 39129.04347826
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.

Our division results in 39129.04347826 with a remaining 2e-09.
