We divide 160871 by 23
We want to divide 160871 by 23.

Let's proceed to step 1:
23 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 23

On to step 2:
23 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 16 and we're left with 16.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 160 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
23 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 138 from 160 leaves us with 22.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 228 / 23

On to step 4:
If we divide 228 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 69.0
If we subtract 207 from 228, we get 21.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 217 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 217 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 10.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 699.0
Deduct 207 from 217 and we're left with 10.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 101 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 23 fits into 101 4 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6994.0
Subtract 92 from 101 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 7:
The number 23 fits into 90 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6994.3
Subtract 69 from 90 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 210 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6994.39
If we subtract 207 from 210, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 30 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6994.391
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 10:
If we divide 70 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6994.3913
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 69 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 10 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6994.3913
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 100 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6994.391304
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 92 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
23 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6994.3913043
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 69 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
23 can be fit into 110 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6994.39130434
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 92 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 6994.39130434, and the remainder is 1.8e-08.
