Let's divide 149796 by 23
We want to figure out the number of times 149796 can be divided by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 23

Step 2:
23 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 149 / 23

On to step 3:
When dividing 149 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 138 from 149.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 117 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 goes into 117 5 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 65.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 115 from 117.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 23

On to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 29 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 651.0
Subtracting 23 from 29 leaves us with 6.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 66 / 23

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 66 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 20.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6512.0
Subtracting 46 from 66 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 200 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6512.8
If we take 184 away from 200, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
23 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6512.86
If we subtract 138 from 160, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 9:
23 can be fit into 220 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6512.869
If we take 207 away from 220, we end up 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 10:
23 goes into 130 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6512.8695
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 11:
When dividing 150 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6512.86956
If we take 138 away from 150, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 12:
23 can be fit into 120 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6512.869565
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 115 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 13:
50 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6512.8695652
If we take 46 away from 50, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
23 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6512.86956521
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.

The quotient of the division is 6512.86956521, and the remainder is 1.7e-08.
