We look at the division of 1001996 by 523 
Our goal is to divide 1001996 by 523.

Step 1:
When dividing 1 by 523, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 10 / 523

Advancing to step 2:
10 divided by 523 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 100 / 523

Advancing to step 3:
The number 523 fits into 100 0 times, leaving a remainder of 100.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 100 after subtracting 0 from 100.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 100, then repeat: 1001 / 523

Step 4:
523 goes into 1001 1 times with a remainder of 478.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 523 from 1001 leaves us with 478.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 478 and repeat the process: 4789 / 523

Step 5:
523 goes into 4789 9 times with a remainder of 82.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
The remainder is 82 after subtracting 4707 from 4789.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 82 and repeat the process: 829 / 523

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 523 fits into 829 1 times, leaving a remainder of 306.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 191.0
Deduct 523 from 829 and we're left with 306.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 306, then repeat: 3066 / 523

On to step 7:
When dividing 3066 by 523, we get 5 with a remainder of 451.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1915.0
Subtracting 2615 from 3066 leaves us with 451.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
4510 divided by 523 is 8 with a remainder of 326.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1915.8
Subtract 4184 from 4510 to get 326.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 3260 by 523, we get 6 and a remainder of 122.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1915.86
The remainder is 122 after subtracting 3138 from 3260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 1220 by 523, we get 2 with a remainder of 174.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1915.862
Subtract 1046 from 1220 to get 174.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
1740 divided by 523 is 3 with a remainder of 171.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1915.8623
Subtracting 1569 from 1740 leaves us with 171.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 1710 by 523, we get 3 with a remainder of 141.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1915.86233
If we take 1569 away from 1710, we end up with 141.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1410, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1915.86233 with a remaining 0.000141.
