We're dividing 392883 by 23 
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 392883.

Advancing to step 1:
23 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
39 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 23 from 39.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 162 / 23

Step 3:
When dividing 162 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 161 away from 162, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
The number 23 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 170.0
If we take 0 away from 18, we end up with 18.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 188 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
23 goes into 188 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1708.0
If we take 184 away from 188, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 43 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
43 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 20.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17081.0
If we take 23 away from 43, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
200 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17081.8
Subtract 184 from 200 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 23 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17081.86
Subtracting 138 from 160 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
23 can be fit into 220 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17081.869
If we take 207 away from 220, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 130 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17081.8695
Deduct 115 from 130 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 23 fits into 150 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17081.86956
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 138 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 120 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17081.869565
If we take 115 away from 120, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 50 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17081.8695652
Subtracting 46 from 50 leaves us 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.

Step 14:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17081.86956521
Subtract 23 from 40 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17081.86956521 with a balance of 1.7e-08.
