Let's divide 462583 by 85
We're looking to find how many times 85 goes into 462583.

Advancing to step 1:
4 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
46 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 46.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 0 from 46.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 46 and continue: 462 / 85

On to step 3:
When dividing 462 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 37.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 425 from 462.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 375 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
85 can be fit into 375 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 340 from 375.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 358 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 358 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 544.0
Deduct 340 from 358 and we're left with 18.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 183 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
85 can be fit into 183 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5442.0
Subtracting 170 from 183 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
130 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 45.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5442.1
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 85 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
85 goes into 450 5 times with a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5442.15
If we take 425 away from 450, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
250 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 80.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5442.152
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 170 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
85 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5442.1529
If we subtract 765 from 800, 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.

On to step 11:
The number 85 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5442.15294
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 340 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 100 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5442.152941
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
85 can be fit into 150 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5442.1529411
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 5442.1529411 with a balance of 6.5e-07.
