We divide 978910 by 23
Our goal is to divide 978910 by 23.

On to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 97 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 92 from 97, we get 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 23

On to step 3:
If we divide 58 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtract 46 from 58 to get 12.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 129 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 23 fits into 129 5 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 425.0
Subtract 115 from 129 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 141 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
23 can be fit into 141 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4256.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 138 from 141.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 30 / 23

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 30 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42561.0
Subtracting 23 from 30 leaves us 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:
23 goes into 70 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42561.3
Deduct 69 from 70 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 10 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 42561.3
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 100 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42561.304
Deduct 92 from 100 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42561.3043
Subtracting 69 from 80 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 110 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42561.30434
If we take 92 away from 110, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
180 divided by 23 is 7 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42561.304347
Subtract 161 from 180 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
190 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42561.3043478
Subtracting 184 from 190 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 14:
23 can be fit into 60 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42561.30434782
Deduct 46 from 60 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 42561.30434782, and the remainder is 1.4e-08.
