We divide 252315 by 85
We want to divide 252315 by 85.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 25, we get 25.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 252 / 85

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 252 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 82.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 82 after subtracting 170 from 252.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 82, then repeat: 823 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 823 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 58.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 765 from 823 leaves us with 58.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 581 / 85

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 581 6 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 296.0
If we subtract 510 from 581, we get 71.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 715 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 715 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2968.0
If we subtract 680 from 715, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
85 can be fit into 350 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2968.4
If we subtract 340 from 350, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 100 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2968.41
If we take 85 away from 100, 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.

Moving on to step 9:
85 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 65.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2968.411
Subtracting 85 from 150 leaves us with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2968.411, and the remainder is 0.0065.
