We're dividing 223901 by 83 
We want to divide 223901 by 83.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 83 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 83

Going ahead to step 2:
83 goes into 22 0 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 22 leaves us with 22.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 223 / 83

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 83 fits into 223 2 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 166 from 223, we get 57.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 579 / 83

On to step 4:
When dividing 579 by 83, we get 6 with a remainder of 81.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 498 from 579, we get 81.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 81, then carry on: 810 / 83

Advancing to step 5:
810 divided by 83 is 9 with a remainder of 63.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 269.0
If we subtract 747 from 810, we get 63.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 63 and continue: 631 / 83

Moving on to step 6:
631 divided by 83 is 7 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2697.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 581 from 631.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
83 can be fit into 500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2697.6
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 498 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
20 divided by 83 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2697.6
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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:
83 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2697.602
Deduct 166 from 200 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 83 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2697.6024
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 332 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 83 fits into 80 0 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2697.6024
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 83 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2697.602409
Subtracting 747 from 800 leaves us with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
530 divided by 83 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2697.6024096
Subtract 498 from 530 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
83 can be fit into 320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2697.60240963
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 249 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2697.60240963 with a balance of 7.1e-08.
