We divide 596931 by 23
Our goal is to divide 596931 by 23.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 59 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
59 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 46 from 59 leaves us with 13.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 136 / 23

On to step 3:
If we divide 136 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 21.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we take 115 away from 136, we end up with 21.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 219 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 219 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 259.0
If we take 207 away from 219, we end up with 12.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 123 / 23

On to step 5:
23 goes into 123 5 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2595.0
If we subtract 115 from 123, we get 8.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 81 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
81 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 12.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25953.0
Deduct 69 from 81 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
23 can be fit into 120 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 25953.5
If we subtract 115 from 120, we get 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:
23 goes into 50 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25953.52
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 46 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25953.521
If we take 23 away from 40, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 10:
23 can be fit into 170 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25953.5217
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 23 fits into 90 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25953.52173
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 69 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 210 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25953.521739
Subtract 207 from 210 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 13:
30 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25953.5217391
Subtract 23 from 30 to 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
23 can be fit into 70 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25953.52173913
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 69 from 70.
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 25953.52173913, and the remainder is 1e-09.
