Let's divide 717123 by 23
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 717123.

Let's proceed to step 1:
7 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 71 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 71 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 69 from 71, we get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 27 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 23 from 27.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 41 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 goes into 41 1 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 311.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 23 from 41.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 182 / 23

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 182 7 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3117.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 161 from 182.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 213 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
23 goes into 213 9 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31179.0
Subtracting 207 from 213 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 60 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31179.2
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
140 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31179.26
Subtracting 138 from 140 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
20 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 31179.26
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
200 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31179.2608
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31179.26086
If we take 138 away from 160, we end up 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 12:
23 goes into 220 9 times with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 31179.260869
Subtract 207 from 220 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 130 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31179.2608695
If we take 115 away from 130, we end up 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 14:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31179.26086956
If we take 138 away from 150, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 31179.26086956, and the remainder is 1.2e-08.
