Let's divide 407485 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 407485.

Step 1:
4 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 40 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 23 from 40.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 177 / 23

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 177 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 161 from 177, we get 16.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 164 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 goes into 164 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 177.0
Subtract 161 from 164 to get 3.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 38 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
23 goes into 38 1 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1771.0
If we take 23 away from 38, we end up with 15.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 155 / 23

On to step 6:
23 goes into 155 6 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17716.0
If we take 138 away from 155, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 170 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17716.7
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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 90 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17716.73
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
23 can be fit into 210 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17716.739
If we take 207 away from 210, we end up 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.

Step 10:
When dividing 30 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17716.7391
Deduct 23 from 30 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
23 can be fit into 70 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17716.73913
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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 10 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17716.73913
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
23 goes into 100 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17716.7391304
Subtract 92 from 100 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
80 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17716.73913043
If we subtract 69 from 80, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17716.73913043 with a balance of 1.1e-08.
