We look at the division of 23638 by 44 
Our goal is to divide 23638 by 44.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 44 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 23 / 44

On to step 2:
44 goes into 23 0 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 23, we get 23.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 236 / 44

On to step 3:
236 divided by 44 is 5 with a remainder of 16.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 220 away from 236, we end up with 16.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 163 / 44

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 44 fits into 163 3 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
Deduct 132 from 163 and we're left with 31.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 318 / 44

Going ahead to step 5:
44 goes into 318 7 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 537.0
If we take 308 away from 318, 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.

Let's proceed to step 6:
100 divided by 44 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 537.2
If we subtract 88 from 100, we 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.

Step 7:
120 divided by 44 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 537.22
If we take 88 away from 120, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 537.22 with a balance of 0.032.
