We divide 83888 by 85
We want to divide 83888 by 85.

Let's proceed to step 1:
85 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 83 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
85 goes into 83 0 times with a remainder of 83.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 83 to get 83.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 83 and continue: 838 / 85

Step 3:
When dividing 838 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 73.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 765 from 838 leaves us with 73.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 73, then repeat: 738 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
738 divided by 85 is 8 with a remainder of 58.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 98.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 680 from 738.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 58, then repeat: 588 / 85

On to step 5:
85 can be fit into 588 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 986.0
Deduct 510 from 588 and we're left with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 780 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 986.9
Subtracting 765 from 780 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.

Step 7:
85 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 65.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 986.91
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 85 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 650 7 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 986.917
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 595 from 650.
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 9:
550 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 986.9176
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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 85 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 986.91764
If we subtract 340 from 400, we get 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 11:
600 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 5.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 986.917647
Subtracting 595 from 600 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
If we divide 50 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 986.917647
If we subtract 0 from 50, we 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 500 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 986.91764705
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 final outcome is 986.91764705, with a leftover of 7.5e-08.
