Let's divide 279326 by 23
We want to figure out the number of times 279326 can be divided by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
23 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
The number 23 fits into 27 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 23 from 27 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 23

Step 3:
49 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 46 away from 49, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 33 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 33 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 121.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 23 from 33.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 102 / 23

Let's proceed to step 5:
102 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1214.0
If we subtract 92 from 102, we get 10.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 106 / 23

Step 6:
106 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12144.0
Subtracting 92 from 106 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 140 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12144.6
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.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12144.6
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
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: 12144.608
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.

Advancing to step 10:
160 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12144.6086
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.

Advancing to step 11:
220 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12144.60869
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 130 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12144.608695
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:
23 can be fit into 150 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12144.6086956
Subtract 138 from 150 to get 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.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12144.60869565
Subtracting 115 from 120 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12144.60869565 with a remaining 5e-09.
