Let's divide 971648 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 971648.

Moving on to step 1:
23 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
23 goes into 97 4 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 92 from 97 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 51 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 5.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we subtract 46 from 51, we get 5.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 56 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 56 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 422.0
Deduct 46 from 56 and we're left with 10.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 104 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 104 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4224.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 92 from 104.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 128 / 23

Moving on to step 6:
128 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42245.0
Subtracting 115 from 128 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 7:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 42245.5
Deduct 115 from 130 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
23 can be fit into 150 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42245.56
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 138 from 150.
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 9:
The number 23 fits into 120 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42245.565
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 50 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42245.5652
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 46 from 50.
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 11:
23 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42245.56521
If we subtract 23 from 40, we 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 170 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42245.565217
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.

Advancing to step 13:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42245.5652173
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
210 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42245.56521739
Subtract 207 from 210 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 42245.56521739, with a leftover of 3e-09.
