197717 divided by 85 
Our goal is to divide 197717 by 85.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 19 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 19 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 0 from 19.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 197 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 197 by 85, we get 2 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 170 from 197 leaves us with 27.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 277 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
85 goes into 277 3 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
Deduct 255 from 277 and we're left with 22.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 221 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 221 by 85, we get 2 and a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 232.0
Subtracting 170 from 221 leaves us with 51.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 517 / 85

Let's proceed to step 6:
517 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2326.0
Subtract 510 from 517 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 70 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2326.0
If we take 0 away from 70, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
85 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2326.08
If we subtract 680 from 700, 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2326.082
Subtracting 170 from 200 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
85 goes into 300 3 times with a remainder of 45.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2326.0823
Subtracting 255 from 300 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
450 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2326.08235
If we subtract 425 from 450, we get 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 12:
250 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 80.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2326.082352
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 170 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
85 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2326.0823529
Subtracting 765 from 800 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
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: 2326.08235294
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.

After the division, we end up with 2326.08235294 and a remainder of 1e-08.
