We divide 279741 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 279741.

Moving on to step 1:
23 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 27 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 23 away from 27, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
49 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 46 away from 49, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 37 / 23

On to step 4:
37 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 121.0
Subtract 23 from 37 to get 14.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 144 / 23

Step 5:
The number 23 fits into 144 6 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1216.0
Subtracting 138 from 144 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 61 / 23

Let's proceed to step 6:
61 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12162.0
Subtract 46 from 61 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.

Advancing to step 7:
23 can be fit into 150 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12162.6
If we take 138 away from 150, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12162.65
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.

Step 9:
If we divide 50 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12162.652
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 46 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 23 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12162.6521
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 23 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 23 fits into 170 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 12162.65217
If we take 161 away from 170, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 90 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12162.652173
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.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 210 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12162.6521739
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 207 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 30 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12162.65217391
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.

The quotient of the division is 12162.65217391, and the remainder is 7e-09.
