We're dividing 43238 by 23 
Let's see how many times 23 fits into 43238.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 43 / 23

On to step 2:
43 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 20.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 23 from 43 and we're left with 20.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 202 / 23

Step 3:
If we divide 202 by 23, we get 8 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 184 from 202 leaves us with 18.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 183 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 183 by 23, we get 7 and a remainder of 22.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187.0
Subtracting 161 from 183 leaves us with 22.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 228 / 23

On to step 5:
If we divide 228 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1879.0
Subtract 207 from 228 to 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.

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 210 by 23, we get 9 with a remainder of 3.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1879.9
Subtracting 207 from 210 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
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: 1879.91
If we take 23 away from 30, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 70 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1879.913
Subtract 69 from 70 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 10 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1879.913
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 100 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1879.91304
Subtract 92 from 100 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
80 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1879.913043
Deduct 69 from 80 and we're left 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 12:
If we divide 110 by 23, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1879.9130434
If we subtract 92 from 110, we 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.

Step 13:
The number 23 fits into 180 7 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1879.91304347
Subtract 161 from 180 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1879.91304347, and the remainder is 1.9e-08.
