231329 divided by 85 
We want to divide 231329 by 85.

On to step 1:
85 goes into 2 0 times with 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.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 85

Step 2:
When dividing 23 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 231 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 231 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 61.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 170 from 231 to get 61.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 61 and continue: 613 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
85 goes into 613 7 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 595 from 613 leaves us with 18.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 182 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 182 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 272.0
Subtract 170 from 182 to get 12.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 129 / 85

On to step 6:
85 can be fit into 129 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2721.0
If we take 85 away from 129, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
85 goes into 440 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2721.5
Subtract 425 from 440 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 150 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 65.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2721.51
If we take 85 away from 150, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
650 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2721.517
Subtracting 595 from 650 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.

Advancing to step 10:
85 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2721.5176
If we take 510 away from 550, we end up with 40.
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 11:
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: 2721.51764
Deduct 340 from 400 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 600 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2721.517647
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 595 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 85 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2721.517647
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 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 14:
85 goes into 500 5 times with a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2721.51764705
Subtract 425 from 500 to get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2721.51764705, and the remainder is 7.5e-08.
