Let's divide 2379 by 85
Our goal is to divide 2379 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 85 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 23 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 23 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 237 / 85

Step 3:
When dividing 237 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 67.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 170 away from 237, we end up with 67.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 679 / 85

On to step 4:
85 can be fit into 679 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 84.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we take 595 away from 679, we end up with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 5:
85 goes into 840 9 times with a remainder of 75.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.9
Deduct 765 from 840 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.

Let's proceed to step 6:
85 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.98
Subtract 680 from 750 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
85 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.988
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 680 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The final result is 27.988 with a remainder of 0.002.
