We divide 25871 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 25871.

On to step 1:
23 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
25 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 23 from 25.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 23

On to step 3:
If we divide 28 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 5.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 23 from 28 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 57 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
57 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 11.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 112.0
Deduct 46 from 57 and we're left with 11.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 111 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
111 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1124.0
If we subtract 92 from 111, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 6:
23 goes into 190 8 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1124.8
If we subtract 184 from 190, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 60 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1124.82
If we take 46 away from 60, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 23 fits into 140 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1124.826
Subtract 138 from 140 to get 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 9:
The number 23 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1124.826
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
200 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1124.82608
Subtracting 184 from 200 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1124.826086
If we take 138 away from 160, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 23 fits into 220 9 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1124.8260869
Subtract 207 from 220 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 130 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1124.82608695
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.

The quotient of the division is 1124.82608695, and the remainder is 1.5e-08.
