Let's divide 2991 by 23
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 2991.

On to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 23

Moving on to step 2:
23 can be fit into 29 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 23 from 29, we get 6.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 69 / 23

Going ahead to step 3:
69 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 69 away from 69, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
1 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 130.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 5:
23 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 130.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 6:
23 can be fit into 100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 130.04
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up with 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 7:
When dividing 80 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 130.043
Subtracting 69 from 80 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.

Advancing to step 8:
23 can be fit into 110 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 130.0434
Subtract 92 from 110 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
23 can be fit into 180 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 130.04347
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.

Moving on to step 10:
23 goes into 190 8 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 130.043478
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 11:
23 can be fit into 60 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 130.0434782
Deduct 46 from 60 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 12:
23 can be fit into 140 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 130.04347826
Subtracting 138 from 140 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 130.04347826 with a balance of 2e-09.
