Let's divide 146763 by 85
We want to divide 146763 by 85.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 85

On to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 146 / 85

On to step 3:
When dividing 146 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 85 from 146 leaves us with 61.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 61, then carry on: 617 / 85

On to step 4:
If we divide 617 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 22.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 595 from 617, we get 22.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 226 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 226 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 172.0
If we subtract 170 from 226, we get 56.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 563 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 563 by 85, we get 6 and a remainder of 53.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1726.0
If we subtract 510 from 563, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Step 7:
530 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1726.6
If we subtract 510 from 530, 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.

Advancing to step 8:
85 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1726.62
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.

Step 9:
When dividing 300 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1726.623
Subtract 255 from 300 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 10:
85 can be fit into 450 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1726.6235
If we take 425 away from 450, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
85 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1726.62352
If we subtract 170 from 250, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 85 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1726.623529
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 13:
If we divide 350 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1726.6235294
If we take 340 away from 350, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 85 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1726.62352941
If we subtract 85 from 100, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1726.62352941, and the remainder is 1.5e-08.
