490766 divided by 23 
Our goal is to divide 490766 by 23.

On to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 23

On to step 2:
The number 23 fits into 49 2 times, leaving 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.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 30 / 23

On to step 3:
When dividing 30 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtracting 23 from 30 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 77 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 77 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 213.0
Subtract 69 from 77 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 86 / 23

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 86 by 23, we get 3 with a remainder of 17.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2133.0
If we take 69 away from 86, we end up with 17.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 176 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 176 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 21337.0
Subtracting 161 from 176 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 150 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21337.6
If we subtract 138 from 150, we 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.

Step 8:
120 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21337.65
If we subtract 115 from 120, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 9:
23 can be fit into 50 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21337.652
Deduct 46 from 50 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
23 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21337.6521
Subtract 23 from 40 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 170 by 23, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 21337.65217
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.

On to step 12:
23 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21337.652173
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 69 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 13:
23 goes into 210 9 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21337.6521739
Subtract 207 from 210 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
30 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21337.65217391
If we subtract 23 from 30, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 21337.65217391, and the remainder is 7e-09.
