We're dividing 66601 by 23 
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 66601.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 66 / 23

Step 2:
23 goes into 66 2 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 46 from 66.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 206 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 206 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 184 from 206 leaves us with 22.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 220 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
23 goes into 220 9 times with a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 289.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 207 from 220.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 131 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 131 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 16.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2895.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 115 from 131.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 160 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2895.6
If we subtract 138 from 160, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
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: 2895.69
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 207 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
23 can be fit into 130 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2895.695
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 9:
When dividing 150 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2895.6956
Subtract 138 from 150 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
23 goes into 120 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2895.69565
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
23 can be fit into 50 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2895.695652
Subtract 46 from 50 to 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.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2895.6956521
If we take 23 away from 40, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 170 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2895.69565217
Deduct 161 from 170 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 2895.69565217 with a remaining 9e-09.
