589423 ÷ 85 
Our goal is to divide 589423 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 58 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 85 fits into 58 0 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 0 from 58.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 589 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
589 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 79.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 79 after subtracting 510 from 589.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 79 and continue with: 794 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
794 divided by 85 is 9 with a remainder of 29.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 69.0
If we take 765 away from 794, we end up with 29.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 292 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 292 by 85, we get 3 and a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 693.0
Subtracting 255 from 292 leaves us with 37.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 373 / 85

Step 6:
373 divided by 85 is 4 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6934.0
If we take 340 away from 373, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
330 divided by 85 is 3 with a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6934.3
Subtracting 255 from 330 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
85 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6934.38
If we subtract 680 from 750, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 700 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6934.388
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 6934.388 with a balance of 0.002.
