We look at the division of 246039 by 85 
Let's see how many times 85 fits into 246039.

Advancing to step 1:
85 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 85

Step 2:
If we divide 24 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 246 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
246 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 170 from 246 leaves us with 76.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 76 and continue with: 760 / 85

On to step 4:
When dividing 760 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 80.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
Deduct 680 from 760 and we're left with 80.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 80 and repeat the process: 803 / 85

On to step 5:
803 divided by 85 is 9 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 289.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 765 from 803.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 389 / 85

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 389 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 49.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2894.0
Subtracting 340 from 389 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 490 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 65.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2894.5
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 425 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
85 can be fit into 650 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2894.57
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:
85 goes into 550 6 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2894.576
Deduct 510 from 550 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
400 divided by 85 is 4 with a remainder of 60.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2894.5764
Subtract 340 from 400 to 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.

Step 11:
If we divide 600 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2894.57647
If we take 595 away from 600, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 85 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2894.57647
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 13:
If we divide 500 by 85, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2894.5764705
If we take 425 away from 500, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 85 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2894.57647058
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.

The final outcome is 2894.57647058, with a leftover of 7e-08.
