We divide 334490 by 85
Our goal is to divide 334490 by 85.

On to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 33 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 33 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 33.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 33, we get 33.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 334 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 334 3 times, leaving a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 255 from 334 and we're left with 79.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 79 and repeat the process: 794 / 85

On to step 4:
When dividing 794 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 29.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 765 from 794 leaves us with 29.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 299 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
85 can be fit into 299 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 393.0
Deduct 255 from 299 and we're left with 44.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 440 / 85

On to step 6:
85 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3935.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 425 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 85 fits into 150 1 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3935.1
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.

Step 8:
When dividing 650 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3935.17
If we take 595 away from 650, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
85 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3935.176
If we take 510 away from 550, we end up 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:
85 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3935.1764
If we subtract 340 from 400, we 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.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 600 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3935.17647
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.

Moving on to step 12:
85 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3935.17647
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 85 fits into 500 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3935.1764705
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 425 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 750 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3935.17647058
If we take 680 away from 750, we end up 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 3935.17647058, with a leftover of 7e-08.
