Let's divide 831485 by 23
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 831485.

Step 1:
23 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 83 / 23

On to step 2:
23 goes into 83 3 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 69 away from 83, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 141 / 23

Step 3:
When dividing 141 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 3.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtracting 138 from 141 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 can be fit into 34 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 361.0
If we subtract 23 from 34, we get 11.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 118 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 118 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3615.0
If we take 115 away from 118, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 35 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 35 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36151.0
Subtract 23 from 35 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
120 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36151.5
Subtracting 115 from 120 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
23 can be fit into 50 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36151.52
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 46 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
23 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36151.521
If we take 23 away from 40, 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.

Moving on to step 10:
23 goes into 170 7 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 36151.5217
Deduct 161 from 170 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 90 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36151.52173
If we subtract 69 from 90, we 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 12:
If we divide 210 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36151.521739
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 13:
30 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 36151.5217391
Subtracting 23 from 30 leaves us 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.

Step 14:
If we divide 70 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36151.52173913
Subtract 69 from 70 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The final result is 36151.52173913 with a remainder of 1e-09.
