We look at the division of 23462889 by 983 
We want to figure out the number of times 23462889 can be divided by 983.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 983 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 23 / 983

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 23 by 983, we get 0 and a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 234 / 983

On to step 3:
The number 983 fits into 234 0 times, leaving a remainder of 234.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 234 after subtracting 0 from 234.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 234, then repeat: 2346 / 983

On to step 4:
2346 divided by 983 is 2 with a remainder of 380.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 1966 from 2346 to get 380.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 380, then repeat: 3802 / 983

Step 5:
If we divide 3802 by 983, we get 3 and a remainder of 853.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtract 2949 from 3802 to get 853.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 853, then repeat: 8538 / 983

Advancing to step 6:
983 goes into 8538 8 times with a remainder of 674.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 238.0
If we subtract 7864 from 8538, we get 674.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 674 and continue: 6748 / 983

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 6748 by 983, we get 6 and a remainder of 850.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2386.0
If we take 5898 away from 6748, we end up with 850.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 850 and repeat the process: 8509 / 983

Advancing to step 8:
983 goes into 8509 8 times with a remainder of 645.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23868.0
Subtracting 7864 from 8509 leaves us with 645.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6450, and continue the process.

Step 9:
983 goes into 6450 6 times with a remainder of 552.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23868.6
If we take 5898 away from 6450, we end up with 552.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 5520 by 983, we get 5 with a remainder of 605.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23868.65
If we subtract 4915 from 5520, we get 605.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6050, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
983 goes into 6050 6 times with a remainder of 152.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23868.656
The remainder is 152 after subtracting 5898 from 6050.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
983 can be fit into 1520 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 537.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23868.6561
The remainder is 537 after subtracting 983 from 1520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5370, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 983 fits into 5370 5 times, leaving a remainder of 455.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23868.65615
Subtract 4915 from 5370 to get 455.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 4550 by 983, we get 4 with a remainder of 618.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 23868.656154
The remainder is 618 after subtracting 3932 from 4550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
983 goes into 6180 6 times with a remainder of 282.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23868.6561546
Subtract 5898 from 6180 to get 282.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2820, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
983 goes into 2820 2 times with a remainder of 854.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23868.65615462
If we subtract 1966 from 2820, we get 854.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8540, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 23868.65615462 and a remainder of 8.54e-07.
