We look at the division of 726444 by 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 726444 can be divided by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
7 divided by 23 is 0 with 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.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
23 goes into 72 3 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 69 from 72, we get 3.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 36 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
23 can be fit into 36 1 times, resulting in 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.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 134 / 23

Step 4:
23 goes into 134 5 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 315.0
Deduct 115 from 134 and we're left with 19.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 194 / 23

Step 5:
If we divide 194 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3158.0
Deduct 184 from 194 and we're left with 10.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 104 / 23

On to step 6:
If we divide 104 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31584.0
Deduct 92 from 104 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 120 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 31584.5
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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 23 fits into 50 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31584.52
Subtract 46 from 50 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31584.521
Subtracting 23 from 40 leaves us with 17.
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 10:
170 divided by 23 is 7 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31584.5217
If we subtract 161 from 170, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 90 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31584.52173
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 69 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 210 by 23, we get 9 with a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31584.521739
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 207 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 13:
23 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31584.5217391
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 23 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 70 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31584.52173913
Deduct 69 from 70 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 31584.52173913 with a balance of 1e-09.
