We divide 495893 by 23
Our goal is to divide 495893 by 23.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 23, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 49 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 3.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 46 from 49 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 35 / 23

Advancing to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 35 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 23 from 35, we get 12.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 23

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 128 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 215.0
Subtracting 115 from 128 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 139 / 23

Step 5:
139 divided by 23 is 6 with a remainder of 1.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2156.0
Subtract 138 from 139 to get 1.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 13 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
23 can be fit into 13 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 21560.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 0 from 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
23 goes into 130 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 21560.5
Subtract 115 from 130 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 150 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 21560.56
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 138 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
120 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21560.565
Deduct 115 from 120 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 10:
23 goes into 50 2 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 21560.5652
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
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: 21560.56521
Deduct 23 from 40 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
23 can be fit into 170 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21560.565217
Subtract 161 from 170 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 13:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21560.5652173
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
210 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21560.56521739
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.

The final result is 21560.56521739 with a remainder of 3e-09.
