Let's divide 299442 by 85
Let's see how many times 85 fits into 299442.

Step 1:
85 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 29 leaves us with 29.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 299 / 85

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 299 by 85, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 255 from 299.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 444 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 444 by 85, we get 5 and a remainder of 19.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we subtract 425 from 444, we get 19.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 194 / 85

Step 5:
The number 85 fits into 194 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 352.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 170 from 194.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 242 / 85

Moving on to step 6:
85 can be fit into 242 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3522.0
Subtracting 170 from 242 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
85 can be fit into 720 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3522.8
Subtract 680 from 720 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 400 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3522.84
If we take 340 away from 400, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 600 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 5.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3522.847
Subtract 595 from 600 to get 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 10:
85 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3522.847
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.

Advancing 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: 3522.84705
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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 85 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3522.847058
Deduct 680 from 750 and we're left 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 13:
85 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3522.8470588
If we subtract 680 from 700, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3522.8470588, and the remainder is 2e-07.
