972692 ÷ 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 972692 can be divided by 23.

Advancing to step 1:
23 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 23

On to step 2:
When dividing 97 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 92 from 97 to get 5.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 52 / 23

Step 3:
If we divide 52 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we subtract 46 from 52, we get 6.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 66 / 23

Step 4:
The number 23 fits into 66 2 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 422.0
Subtracting 46 from 66 leaves us with 20.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 209 / 23

Let's proceed to step 5:
23 goes into 209 9 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4229.0
Deduct 207 from 209 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 23

On to step 6:
22 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 22.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42290.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 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 7:
If we divide 220 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42290.9
Deduct 207 from 220 and we're left with 13.
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:
When dividing 130 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42290.95
Subtracting 115 from 130 leaves us 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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42290.956
Subtracting 138 from 150 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 120 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42290.9565
Deduct 115 from 120 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 11:
50 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42290.95652
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.

On to step 12:
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: 42290.956521
Subtract 23 from 40 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
23 can be fit into 170 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 42290.9565217
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 23 fits into 90 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42290.95652173
Deduct 69 from 90 and we're left 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.

The final outcome is 42290.95652173, with a leftover of 2.1e-08.
