Let's divide 164950 by 85
We want to figure out the number of times 164950 can be divided by 85.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 85

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 164 / 85

Let's proceed to step 3:
85 goes into 164 1 times with a remainder of 79.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 85 away from 164, we end up with 79.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 79, then repeat: 799 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
799 divided by 85 is 9 with a remainder of 34.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtracting 765 from 799 leaves us with 34.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 345 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 345 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 194.0
Deduct 340 from 345 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 50 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
85 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1940.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
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:
The number 85 fits into 500 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1940.5
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 425 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1940.58
If we subtract 680 from 750, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 700 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1940.588
If we take 680 away from 700, 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.

The quotient of the division is 1940.588, and the remainder is 0.002.
