Let's divide 887607 by 23
Our goal is to divide 887607 by 23.

Let's proceed to step 1:
8 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
23 goes into 88 3 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 69 from 88 leaves us with 19.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 197 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
23 can be fit into 197 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 38.0
Subtracting 184 from 197 leaves us with 13.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 136 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 136 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 385.0
If we subtract 115 from 136, we get 21.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 210 / 23

Let's proceed to step 5:
23 goes into 210 9 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3859.0
If we subtract 207 from 210, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 37 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
23 goes into 37 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38591.0
Deduct 23 from 37 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 140 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38591.6
Deduct 138 from 140 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 23 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38591.6
Subtracting 0 from 20 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 9:
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: 38591.608
Subtract 184 from 200 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
23 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38591.6086
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.

On to step 11:
If we divide 220 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38591.60869
Subtracting 207 from 220 leaves us 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 12:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 38591.608695
If we take 115 away from 130, we end up 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 13:
150 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 38591.6086956
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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38591.60869565
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.

The quotient of the division is 38591.60869565, and the remainder is 5e-09.
