226772 ÷ 85 
We want to divide 226772 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 22 / 85

Step 2:
The number 85 fits into 22 0 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 22 leaves us with 22.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 226 / 85

Going ahead to step 3:
85 can be fit into 226 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 170 from 226 to get 56.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 56, then repeat: 567 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
567 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 510 from 567 leaves us with 57.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 57, then repeat: 577 / 85

On to step 5:
577 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 67.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 266.0
Deduct 510 from 577 and we're left with 67.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 67, then carry on: 672 / 85

Advancing to step 6:
672 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2667.0
The remainder is 77 after subtracting 595 from 672.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 85 fits into 770 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2667.9
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 765 from 770.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
85 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2667.9
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
500 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2667.905
If we subtract 425 from 500, we get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 750 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 70.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2667.9058
Subtracting 680 from 750 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
85 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2667.90588
Deduct 680 from 700 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2667.90588 with a balance of 2e-05.
