We divide 33740 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 33740.

On to step 1:
23 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 33 / 23

Step 2:
The number 23 fits into 33 1 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 23 from 33, we get 10.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 107 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 107 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 15.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 92 from 107 to get 15.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 154 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 can be fit into 154 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 146.0
If we subtract 138 from 154, we get 16.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 160 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 160 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 22.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1466.0
Deduct 138 from 160 and we're left 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 6:
If we divide 220 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1466.9
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.

Step 7:
If we divide 130 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1466.95
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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 150 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1466.956
If we subtract 138 from 150, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 120 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1466.9565
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.

Moving on to step 10:
23 goes into 50 2 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1466.95652
Deduct 46 from 50 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 11:
23 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1466.956521
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.

On to step 12:
23 can be fit into 170 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1466.9565217
Subtract 161 from 170 to 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 90 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1466.95652173
Deduct 69 from 90 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 1466.95652173 with a remaining 2.1e-08.
