We're dividing 678586 by 23 
Our goal is to divide 678586 by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
6 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 67 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
67 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 21.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 46 away from 67, we end up with 21.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 218 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
If we take 207 away from 218, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 115 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 goes into 115 5 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 295.0
If we take 115 away from 115, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 23

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 8 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2950.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 86 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 86 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29503.0
If we subtract 69 from 86, 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.

On to step 7:
23 goes into 170 7 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29503.7
If we subtract 161 from 170, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29503.73
If we take 69 away from 90, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
23 goes into 210 9 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29503.739
If we subtract 207 from 210, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
23 can be fit into 30 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29503.7391
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 23 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 23 fits into 70 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29503.73913
If we take 69 away from 70, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29503.73913
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 100 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29503.7391304
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up 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.

On to step 14:
23 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29503.73913043
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.

The final result is 29503.73913043 with a remainder of 1.1e-08.
