We divide 749854 by 85
Our goal is to divide 749854 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 85 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 85

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 85 fits into 74 0 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 74 to get 74.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 749 / 85

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 749 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 69.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 680 from 749 leaves us with 69.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 69, then carry on: 698 / 85

Step 4:
85 can be fit into 698 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 88.0
Deduct 680 from 698 and we're left with 18.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 185 / 85

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 185 by 85, we get 2 and a remainder of 15.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 882.0
Subtracting 170 from 185 leaves us with 15.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 154 / 85

Advancing to step 6:
154 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 69.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8821.0
Subtract 85 from 154 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 690 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8821.8
Deduct 680 from 690 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8821.81
Subtracting 85 from 100 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 9:
85 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 65.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8821.811
Deduct 85 from 150 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 8821.811 with a balance of 0.0065.
