We divide 979243 by 23
Our goal is to divide 979243 by 23.

On to step 1:
23 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 97 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 92 from 97 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
23 can be fit into 59 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we subtract 46 from 59, we get 13.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 132 / 23

On to step 4:
23 can be fit into 132 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 425.0
If we subtract 115 from 132, we get 17.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 174 / 23

On to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 174 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4257.0
If we subtract 161 from 174, we get 13.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 133 / 23

On to step 6:
23 can be fit into 133 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42575.0
If we subtract 115 from 133, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 180 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42575.7
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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 23 fits into 190 8 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 42575.78
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 184 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 60 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42575.782
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 46 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 140 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42575.7826
Subtracting 138 from 140 leaves us 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 20 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42575.7826
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42575.782608
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left 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 13:
23 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42575.7826086
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
23 can be fit into 220 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42575.78260869
Deduct 207 from 220 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 42575.78260869 with a balance of 1.3e-08.
