We divide 499584 by 85
We want to figure out the number of times 499584 can be divided by 85.

Moving on to step 1:
85 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 85

Step 2:
When dividing 49 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 49, we end up with 49.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 499 / 85

On to step 3:
499 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 74.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 425 from 499 leaves us with 74.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 74, then repeat: 745 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 745 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Deduct 680 from 745 and we're left with 65.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 65, then repeat: 658 / 85

Going ahead to step 5:
658 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 63.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 587.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 595 from 658.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 63, then carry on: 634 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
85 can be fit into 634 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5877.0
If we take 595 away from 634, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 390 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 50.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5877.4
If we take 340 away from 390, we end up 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 8:
When dividing 500 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5877.45
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.

Step 9:
The number 85 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5877.458
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.

On to step 10:
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: 5877.4588
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.

After the division, we end up with 5877.4588 and a remainder of 0.0002.
