Let's divide 985214 by 85
We want to divide 985214 by 85.

Moving on to step 1:
9 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 85 from 98.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 135 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
135 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 50.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 85 from 135, we get 50.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 502 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 502 by 85, we get 5 and a remainder of 77.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 115.0
Subtract 425 from 502 to get 77.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 77, then repeat: 771 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 771 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1159.0
Deduct 765 from 771 and we're left with 6.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 64 / 85

Step 6:
85 goes into 64 0 times with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11590.0
Subtracting 0 from 64 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 640 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11590.7
Deduct 595 from 640 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
450 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11590.75
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 425 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 250 2 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11590.752
Subtract 170 from 250 to 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 10:
If we divide 800 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 35.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11590.7529
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 765 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 11:
350 divided by 85 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11590.75294
Subtracting 340 from 350 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
100 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11590.752941
Subtracting 85 from 100 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 13:
85 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 65.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11590.7529411
If we subtract 85 from 150, we 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.

After the division, we end up with 11590.7529411 and a remainder of 6.5e-07.
