445869 ÷ 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 445869 can be divided by 23.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 23

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 23 fits into 44 1 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 23 away from 44, we end up with 21.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 215 / 23

On to step 3:
23 goes into 215 9 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 207 from 215.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
23 can be fit into 88 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 193.0
If we take 69 away from 88, we end up with 19.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 196 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
The number 23 fits into 196 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1938.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 184 from 196.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 129 / 23

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 129 by 23, we get 5 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 19385.0
If we subtract 115 from 129, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 140 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19385.6
Subtract 138 from 140 to 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.

Step 8:
The number 23 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19385.6
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
23 goes into 200 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19385.608
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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 23 fits into 160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19385.6086
If we take 138 away from 160, we end up 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.

On to step 11:
23 can be fit into 220 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19385.60869
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 207 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
23 can be fit into 130 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19385.608695
Deduct 115 from 130 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 150 by 23, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 19385.6086956
Subtracting 138 from 150 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
23 can be fit into 120 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19385.60869565
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 115 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Our division results in 19385.60869565 with a remaining 5e-09.
