488434 divided by 23 
We want to divide 488434 by 23.

Going ahead to step 1:
23 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 23

Step 2:
23 goes into 48 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 46 away from 48, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
23 can be fit into 28 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we take 23 away from 28, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 54 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 54 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 212.0
Subtracting 46 from 54 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 83 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
83 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2123.0
If we subtract 69 from 83, we get 14.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 144 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 144 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 21236.0
If we subtract 138 from 144, we 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
60 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21236.2
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.

Step 8:
23 goes into 140 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21236.26
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.

Moving on to step 9:
20 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21236.26
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.

On to step 10:
200 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 21236.2608
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 23 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 21236.26086
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 138 from 160.
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:
220 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21236.260869
Subtract 207 from 220 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
23 goes into 130 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21236.2608695
If we take 115 away from 130, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 14:
150 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21236.26086956
Subtracting 138 from 150 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 21236.26086956 with a remaining 1.2e-08.
