Let's divide 8612499 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 8612499.

On to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 86 / 23

Step 2:
23 goes into 86 3 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 69 from 86.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 171 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 171 7 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 161 from 171.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 102 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 102 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 374.0
Deduct 92 from 102 and we're left with 10.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 104 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
23 can be fit into 104 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3744.0
If we subtract 92 from 104, we get 12.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 129 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
23 goes into 129 5 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37445.0
Subtract 115 from 129 to get 14.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 149 / 23

On to step 7:
If we divide 149 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 374456.0
Subtracting 138 from 149 leaves us 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.

Step 8:
23 goes into 110 4 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 374456.4
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
23 can be fit into 180 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 374456.47
Subtracting 161 from 180 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 190 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 374456.478
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 60 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 374456.4782
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 46 from 60.
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 12:
140 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 374456.47826
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 138 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
20 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 374456.47826
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 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 14:
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: 374456.4782608
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.

On to step 15:
160 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 374456.47826086
If we take 138 away from 160, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 374456.47826086, with a leftover of 2.2e-08.
