23439 divided by 98 
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 23439.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 23 / 98

Moving on to step 2:
98 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 23, we get 23.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 234 / 98

Moving on to step 3:
98 goes into 234 2 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 196 from 234.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 383 / 98

On to step 4:
The number 98 fits into 383 3 times, leaving a remainder of 89.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we subtract 294 from 383, we get 89.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 89 and repeat the process: 899 / 98

On to step 5:
98 goes into 899 9 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 239.0
If we subtract 882 from 899, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 6:
98 goes into 170 1 times with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 239.1
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 98 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
720 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 239.17
If we take 686 away from 720, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 98, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 239.173
If we subtract 294 from 340, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
98 goes into 460 4 times with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 239.1734
Subtracting 392 from 460 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
98 goes into 680 6 times with a remainder of 92.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 239.17346
If we subtract 588 from 680, we get 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
98 goes into 920 9 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 239.173469
Subtract 882 from 920 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
98 can be fit into 380 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 86.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 239.1734693
If we take 294 away from 380, we end up with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 860 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 239.17346938
If we take 784 away from 860, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 239.17346938 with a balance of 7.6e-08.
