We're dividing 288566 by 85 
Our goal is to divide 288566 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
85 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 85

Let's proceed to step 2:
28 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 288 / 85

Going ahead to step 3:
85 goes into 288 3 times with a remainder of 33.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 255 from 288.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 335 / 85

On to step 4:
If we divide 335 by 85, we get 3 and a remainder of 80.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 33.0
If we take 255 away from 335, we end up with 80.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 80, then repeat: 806 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 806 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 339.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 765 from 806.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 416 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 416 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 76.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3394.0
If we take 340 away from 416, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 760 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 80.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3394.8
Subtract 680 from 760 to 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 8:
85 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3394.89
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 765 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
85 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3394.894
Subtracting 340 from 350 leaves us 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 10:
If we divide 100 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3394.8941
If we take 85 away from 100, we end up 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 11:
When dividing 150 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 65.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3394.89411
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.

After the division, we end up with 3394.89411 and a remainder of 6.5e-05.
