We divide 401496 by 85
Let's see how many times 85 fits into 401496.

Advancing to step 1:
85 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 40 / 85

Step 2:
85 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 401 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 401 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 61.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 340 from 401.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 61 and continue: 614 / 85

Step 4:
When dividing 614 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 19.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 595 from 614.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 199 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 199 2 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 472.0
Subtract 170 from 199 to get 29.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 296 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
296 divided by 85 is 3 with a remainder of 41.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4723.0
If we take 255 away from 296, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 85 fits into 410 4 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4723.4
Subtracting 340 from 410 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 8:
85 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4723.48
Deduct 680 from 700 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4723.482
If we take 170 away from 200, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 85 fits into 300 3 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4723.4823
Subtracting 255 from 300 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
85 goes into 450 5 times with a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4723.48235
Deduct 425 from 450 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
The number 85 fits into 250 2 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4723.482352
If we take 170 away from 250, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 800 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 35.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4723.4823529
Subtract 765 from 800 to 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 14:
85 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4723.48235294
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.

After the division, we end up with 4723.48235294 and a remainder of 1e-08.
