272529 divided by 23 
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 272529.

Let's proceed to step 1:
23 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 23

Step 2:
When dividing 27 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 23 from 27 to get 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
23 can be fit into 42 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 23 from 42, we get 19.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 195 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 195 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 11.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtract 184 from 195 to get 11.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 112 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 112 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1184.0
If we take 92 away from 112, we end up with 20.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 209 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 209 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11849.0
If we take 207 away from 209, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
23 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11849.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 200 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11849.08
If we subtract 184 from 200, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
23 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11849.086
Deduct 138 from 160 and we're left 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 10:
23 can be fit into 220 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11849.0869
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 207 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 130 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11849.08695
If we subtract 115 from 130, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11849.086956
Deduct 138 from 150 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 120 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11849.0869565
If we take 115 away from 120, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 50 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11849.08695652
Deduct 46 from 50 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 11849.08695652 with a balance of 4e-09.
