Let's divide 299184 by 85
We want to divide 299184 by 85.

Moving on to step 1:
85 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 85

On to step 2:
When dividing 29 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 29.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 29 leaves us with 29.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 299 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 299 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 44.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 255 from 299 and we're left with 44.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 441 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
441 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 16.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we subtract 425 from 441, we get 16.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 168 / 85

Going ahead to step 5:
168 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 83.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 351.0
Subtracting 85 from 168 leaves us with 83.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 83, then repeat: 834 / 85

Step 6:
85 goes into 834 9 times with a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3519.0
Deduct 765 from 834 and we're left with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 85 fits into 690 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3519.8
If we take 680 away from 690, 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.

On to step 8:
85 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3519.81
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 85 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
85 can be fit into 150 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3519.811
Subtract 85 from 150 to get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3519.811 with a remaining 0.0065.
