We're dividing 500960 by 85 
We're looking to find how many times 85 goes into 500960.

Advancing to step 1:
85 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 50 / 85

On to step 2:
The number 85 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 500 / 85

Step 3:
When dividing 500 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 425 from 500 and we're left with 75.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 75, then repeat: 759 / 85

On to step 4:
If we divide 759 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 79.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtracting 680 from 759 leaves us with 79.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 79, then repeat: 796 / 85

On to step 5:
When dividing 796 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 589.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 765 from 796.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 310 / 85

On to step 6:
85 goes into 310 3 times with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5893.0
Subtracting 255 from 310 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 550 by 85, we get 6 and a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5893.6
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 510 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
85 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5893.64
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 340 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5893.647
If we take 595 away from 600, we end up with 5.
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 10:
85 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5893.647
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
85 goes into 500 5 times with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5893.64705
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.

Moving on to step 12:
85 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5893.647058
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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 700 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5893.6470588
Subtracting 680 from 700 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 5893.6470588 with a remaining 2e-07.
