We divide 256936 by 23
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 256936.

On to step 1:
23 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
23 can be fit into 25 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 23 from 25 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 23

Step 3:
The number 23 fits into 26 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 23 from 26, we get 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 39 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 16.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 111.0
Deduct 23 from 39 and we're left with 16.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 163 / 23

Step 5:
When dividing 163 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1117.0
If we subtract 161 from 163, we get 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 23

Step 6:
23 can be fit into 26 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11171.0
If we take 23 away from 26, we end up 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.

Step 7:
30 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11171.1
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 70 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11171.13
Deduct 69 from 70 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
23 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11171.13
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.

Moving on to step 10:
23 can be fit into 100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11171.1304
If we subtract 92 from 100, we 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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 23 fits into 80 3 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11171.13043
Subtract 69 from 80 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 110 4 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11171.130434
Subtract 92 from 110 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 180 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11171.1304347
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 161 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
190 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11171.13043478
If we take 184 away from 190, we end up 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.

Our division results in 11171.13043478 with a remaining 6e-09.
