Let's divide 248091 by 85
Our goal is to divide 248091 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 85 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 85

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up with 24.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 248 / 85

Step 3:
85 goes into 248 2 times with a remainder of 78.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 170 from 248.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 78 and continue with: 780 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 780 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 765 from 780 and we're left with 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 85

Step 5:
159 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 291.0
Deduct 85 from 159 and we're left with 74.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 74, then repeat: 741 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 741 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 61.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2918.0
If we subtract 680 from 741, we get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 610 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2918.7
If we take 595 away from 610, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
150 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 65.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2918.71
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 85 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
650 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 55.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2918.717
If we subtract 595 from 650, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
85 goes into 550 6 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2918.7176
Subtracting 510 from 550 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 60.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2918.71764
If we take 340 away from 400, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 600 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2918.717647
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 595 from 600.
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 13:
85 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2918.717647
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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 500 by 85, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2918.71764705
Deduct 425 from 500 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2918.71764705, with a leftover of 7.5e-08.
