We divide 55641 by 23
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 55641.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
23 goes into 55 2 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 46 from 55 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 96 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
96 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we subtract 92 from 96, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 44 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
23 can be fit into 44 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 241.0
If we take 23 away from 44, we end up with 21.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 211 / 23

On to step 5:
23 goes into 211 9 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2419.0
If we subtract 207 from 211, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
23 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2419.1
Deduct 23 from 40 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 170 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2419.17
Subtract 161 from 170 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2419.173
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.

Step 9:
23 goes into 210 9 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2419.1739
Subtracting 207 from 210 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
30 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2419.17391
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.

Moving on to step 11:
70 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2419.173913
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 10 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2419.173913
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 100 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2419.17391304
Subtract 92 from 100 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2419.17391304 and a remainder of 8e-09.
