Let's divide 357901 by 23
Our goal is to divide 357901 by 23.

On to step 1:
23 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 35 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 35 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 23 away from 35, we end up with 12.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 127 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 127 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 115 from 127 and we're left with 12.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 129 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
23 goes into 129 5 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 155.0
If we take 115 away from 129, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 140 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
23 can be fit into 140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1556.0
Subtract 138 from 140 to get 2.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 21 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
23 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15560.0
Subtract 0 from 21 to get 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 7:
23 can be fit into 210 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15560.9
Subtracting 207 from 210 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 30 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15560.91
If we subtract 23 from 30, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 70 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15560.913
If we subtract 69 from 70, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 10 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15560.913
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
23 goes into 100 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15560.91304
Deduct 92 from 100 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
23 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 15560.913043
If we subtract 69 from 80, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
23 can be fit into 110 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15560.9130434
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 92 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 180 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15560.91304347
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.

Our division results in 15560.91304347 with a remaining 1.9e-08.
