We look at the division of 584478 by 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 584478 can be divided by 23.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 23

Step 2:
23 goes into 58 2 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 46 from 58 and we're left with 12.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 124 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
23 goes into 124 5 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 115 from 124 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 94 / 23

On to step 4:
23 can be fit into 94 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 254.0
Subtract 92 from 94 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 23

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 27 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2541.0
Subtract 23 from 27 to get 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 23

Step 6:
The number 23 fits into 48 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25412.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 46 from 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 20 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25412.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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 8:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 25412.08
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 184 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
23 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25412.086
Subtract 138 from 160 to 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.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 23 fits into 220 9 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25412.0869
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.

On to step 11:
23 goes into 130 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25412.08695
If we subtract 115 from 130, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
150 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25412.086956
Deduct 138 from 150 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
23 can be fit into 120 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25412.0869565
Subtract 115 from 120 to get 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 14:
50 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25412.08695652
If we subtract 46 from 50, we 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 25412.08695652 with a balance of 4e-09.
