23487 divided by 1 
We want to figure out the number of times 23487 can be divided by 1.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 1, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 3 / 1

On to step 2:
1 can be fit into 3 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we subtract 3 from 3, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 4 / 1

Let's proceed to step 3:
1 can be fit into 4 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 234.0
If we subtract 4 from 4, we get 0.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 1

Going ahead to step 4:
1 goes into 8 8 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2348.0
Deduct 8 from 8 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 1

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 7 by 1, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23487.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 7 from 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
1 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23487.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23487.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 23487.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
