Let's divide 545249 by 23
We want to divide 545249 by 23.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
54 divided by 23 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 46 from 54 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 85 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 85 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtract 69 from 85 to get 16.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 162 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 162 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 237.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 161 from 162.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 23

Step 5:
If we divide 14 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2370.0
Deduct 0 from 14 and we're left with 14.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 149 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 149 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 11.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23706.0
Subtracting 138 from 149 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23706.4
If we take 92 away from 110, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 23 fits into 180 7 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23706.47
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 161 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
23 goes into 190 8 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23706.478
Subtracting 184 from 190 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 60 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 23706.4782
Subtracting 46 from 60 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
23 goes into 140 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23706.47826
If we subtract 138 from 140, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 20 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23706.47826
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 23706.4782608
If we take 184 away from 200, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 23 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 23706.47826086
Deduct 138 from 160 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 23706.47826086, and the remainder is 2.2e-08.
