We're dividing 721874 by 23 
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 721874.

On to step 1:
23 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 23

On to step 2:
72 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 69 from 72 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 23

On to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 31 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 23 from 31.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 23

Step 4:
If we divide 88 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 313.0
Subtracting 69 from 88 leaves us with 19.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 197 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
23 goes into 197 8 times with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3138.0
Deduct 184 from 197 and we're left with 13.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 134 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
23 can be fit into 134 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31385.0
If we take 115 away from 134, we end up with 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 7:
23 goes into 190 8 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31385.8
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 8:
If we divide 60 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 31385.82
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 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 9:
23 can be fit into 140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 31385.826
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 138 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 20 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31385.826
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31385.82608
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.

On to step 12:
23 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 31385.826086
Subtracting 138 from 160 leaves us with 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 13:
The number 23 fits into 220 9 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31385.8260869
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31385.82608695
Subtract 115 from 130 to 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.

The quotient of the division is 31385.82608695, and the remainder is 1.5e-08.
