We're dividing 59389 by 23 
Our goal is to divide 59389 by 23.

Let's proceed to step 1:
23 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 59 / 23

On to step 2:
23 goes into 59 2 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 46 from 59 leaves us with 13.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 133 / 23

Step 3:
If we divide 133 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we take 115 away from 133, we end up with 18.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 188 / 23

On to step 4:
If we divide 188 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 258.0
If we subtract 184 from 188, we get 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
23 goes into 49 2 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2582.0
Deduct 46 from 49 and we're left 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.

On to step 6:
If we divide 30 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2582.1
Deduct 23 from 30 and we're left with 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 7:
The number 23 fits into 70 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2582.13
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.

On to step 8:
10 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2582.13
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 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 9:
100 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2582.1304
Subtracting 92 from 100 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
23 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2582.13043
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 69 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 11:
23 can be fit into 110 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2582.130434
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.

On to step 12:
23 goes into 180 7 times with a remainder of 19.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2582.1304347
Deduct 161 from 180 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 190 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2582.13043478
Deduct 184 from 190 and we're left 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 2582.13043478 with a remaining 6e-09.
