Let's divide 33271978 by 23
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 33271978.

Step 1:
The number 23 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 33 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
23 can be fit into 33 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 23 from 33 leaves us with 10.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 102 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 102 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 92 from 102, we get 10.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 107 / 23

On to step 4:
If we divide 107 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 15.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 144.0
Subtracting 92 from 107 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 151 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 151 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1446.0
Subtract 138 from 151 to get 13.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 139 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
The number 23 fits into 139 6 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14466.0
If we take 138 away from 139, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 23

Step 7:
If we divide 17 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 144660.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 178 / 23

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 178 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1446607.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 161 from 178.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
170 divided by 23 is 7 with a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1446607.7
If we subtract 161 from 170, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1446607.73
If we subtract 69 from 90, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 23 fits into 210 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1446607.739
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 30 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1446607.7391
Deduct 23 from 30 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 70 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1446607.73913
Deduct 69 from 70 and we're left 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.

On to step 14:
23 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1446607.73913
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 100 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1446607.7391304
Subtracting 92 from 100 leaves us 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 16:
23 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1446607.73913043
Subtracting 69 from 80 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1446607.73913043 with a remaining 1.1e-08.
