We're dividing 401923 by 89 
We want to divide 401923 by 89.

On to step 1:
89 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in 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.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 89

Let's proceed to step 2:
89 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 401 / 89

On to step 3:
If we divide 401 by 89, we get 4 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 356 away from 401, we end up with 45.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 459 / 89

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 459 by 89, we get 5 and a remainder of 14.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 45.0
If we take 445 away from 459, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 142 / 89

On to step 5:
89 goes into 142 1 times with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 451.0
If we take 89 away from 142, we end up with 53.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 533 / 89

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 533 by 89, we get 5 and a remainder of 88.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4515.0
If we take 445 away from 533, we end up with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
89 can be fit into 880 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4515.9
Subtracting 801 from 880 leaves us with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 89 fits into 790 8 times, leaving a remainder of 78.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4515.98
If we subtract 712 from 790, we get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 780 by 89, we get 8 and a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4515.988
If we take 712 away from 780, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4515.988 with a remaining 0.0068.
