23938720 ÷ 842 
We're looking to find how many times 842 goes into 23938720.

Going ahead to step 1:
842 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
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 842

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 23 by 842, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 239 / 842

On to step 3:
842 can be fit into 239 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 239.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 239 after subtracting 0 from 239.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 239, then carry on: 2393 / 842

On to step 4:
2393 divided by 842 is 2 with a remainder of 709.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 1684 from 2393 and we're left with 709.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 709 and continue: 7098 / 842

Step 5:
When dividing 7098 by 842, we get 8 with a remainder of 362.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we take 6736 away from 7098, we end up with 362.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 362 and continue with: 3627 / 842

Let's proceed to step 6:
3627 divided by 842 is 4 with a remainder of 259.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 284.0
Subtracting 3368 from 3627 leaves us with 259.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 259 and continue: 2592 / 842

On to step 7:
842 goes into 2592 3 times with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2843.0
Subtracting 2526 from 2592 leaves us with 66.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 66 and continue with: 660 / 842

Step 8:
If we divide 660 by 842, we get 0 and a remainder of 660.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28430.0
Subtracting 0 from 660 leaves us with 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
842 can be fit into 6600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 706.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 28430.7
If we take 5894 away from 6600, we end up with 706.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7060, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
842 goes into 7060 8 times with a remainder of 324.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28430.78
The remainder is 324 after subtracting 6736 from 7060.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 3240 by 842, we get 3 with a remainder of 714.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28430.783
Subtract 2526 from 3240 to get 714.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 842 fits into 7140 8 times, leaving a remainder of 404.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28430.7838
The remainder is 404 after subtracting 6736 from 7140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4040, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
4040 divided by 842 is 4 with a remainder of 672.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 28430.78384
Deduct 3368 from 4040 and we're left with 672.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
842 goes into 6720 7 times with a remainder of 826.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 28430.783847
If we subtract 5894 from 6720, we get 826.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 8260 by 842, we get 9 with a remainder of 682.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28430.7838479
Subtract 7578 from 8260 to get 682.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6820, and continue the process.

Step 16:
The number 842 fits into 6820 8 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28430.78384798
Deduct 6736 from 6820 and we're left with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 28430.78384798 with a balance of 8.4e-08.
