We're dividing 726079 by 23 
Our goal is to divide 726079 by 23.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
72 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 69 from 72, we get 3.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 36 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 36 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 23 from 36.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 130 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 315.0
Subtract 115 from 130 to get 15.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 157 / 23

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 157 6 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3156.0
If we subtract 138 from 157, we get 19.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 199 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 23 fits into 199 8 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31568.0
Subtracting 184 from 199 leaves us 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 7:
150 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31568.6
Subtracting 138 from 150 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 8:
23 goes into 120 5 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 31568.65
Deduct 115 from 120 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
50 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31568.652
Subtracting 46 from 50 leaves us 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 10:
If we divide 40 by 23, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31568.6521
Subtract 23 from 40 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 170 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31568.65217
Subtracting 161 from 170 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
90 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 21.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31568.652173
If we take 69 away from 90, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
23 goes into 210 9 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31568.6521739
Deduct 207 from 210 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 23 fits into 30 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31568.65217391
If we take 23 away from 30, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 31568.65217391 and a remainder of 7e-09.
