We divide 291261 by 23
We want to figure out the number of times 291261 can be divided by 23.

Step 1:
23 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 23

Step 2:
When dividing 29 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 23 from 29.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 61 / 23

On to step 3:
When dividing 61 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 15.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 46 away from 61, we end up with 15.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 152 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
23 can be fit into 152 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 126.0
Deduct 138 from 152 and we're left with 14.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 146 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
23 goes into 146 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1266.0
Subtract 138 from 146 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 81 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 81 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 12663.0
If we subtract 69 from 81, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
23 goes into 120 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12663.5
Deduct 115 from 120 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 50 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12663.52
If we take 46 away from 50, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 23 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12663.521
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 23 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 170 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 12663.5217
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 161 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
90 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 21.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12663.52173
Subtracting 69 from 90 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
210 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12663.521739
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 207 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 30 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12663.5217391
If we take 23 away from 30, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
23 goes into 70 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12663.52173913
If we take 69 away from 70, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12663.52173913, and the remainder is 1e-09.
