552638 divided by 23 
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 552638.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 55 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 9.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 46 from 55 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 92 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
92 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtract 92 from 92 to get 0.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 6 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
6 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 240.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 63 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
23 goes into 63 2 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2402.0
If we take 46 away from 63, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 178 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
23 can be fit into 178 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24027.0
Subtract 161 from 178 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.

On to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 170 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 24027.7
If we take 161 away from 170, we end up with 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 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24027.73
Subtracting 69 from 90 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
210 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24027.739
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 207 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 30 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24027.7391
If we subtract 23 from 30, we get 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 11:
If we divide 70 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24027.73913
Subtract 69 from 70 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
10 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24027.73913
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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 100 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24027.7391304
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 14:
23 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 24027.73913043
If we take 69 away from 80, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 24027.73913043 with a balance of 1.1e-08.
