We divide 235977 by 422
Our goal is to divide 235977 by 422.

Step 1:
The number 422 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 422

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 23 by 422, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 235 / 422

Moving on to step 3:
235 divided by 422 is 0 with a remainder of 235.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 235 and we're left with 235.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 235 and continue with: 2359 / 422

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 2359 by 422, we get 5 with a remainder of 249.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 249 after subtracting 2110 from 2359.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 249, then carry on: 2497 / 422

Advancing to step 5:
422 can be fit into 2497 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 387.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55.0
Subtract 2110 from 2497 to get 387.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 387 and continue: 3877 / 422

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 3877 by 422, we get 9 with a remainder of 79.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 559.0
If we subtract 3798 from 3877, we get 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
422 goes into 790 1 times with a remainder of 368.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 559.1
If we subtract 422 from 790, we get 368.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3680, and continue the process.

Step 8:
3680 divided by 422 is 8 with a remainder of 304.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 559.18
If we take 3376 away from 3680, we end up with 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 3040 by 422, we get 7 and a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 559.187
If we subtract 2954 from 3040, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
422 goes into 860 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 559.1872
If we take 844 away from 860, we end up 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.

Step 11:
The number 422 fits into 160 0 times, leaving a remainder of 160.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 559.1872
Deduct 0 from 160 and we're left with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 1600 by 422, we get 3 with a remainder of 334.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 559.187203
Subtract 1266 from 1600 to get 334.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3340, and continue the process.

Step 13:
3340 divided by 422 is 7 with a remainder of 386.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 559.1872037
If we subtract 2954 from 3340, we get 386.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3860, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 3860 by 422, we get 9 with a remainder of 62.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 559.18720379
Subtracting 3798 from 3860 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 559.18720379 with a balance of 6.2e-08.
