We divide 579045 by 85
We're looking to find how many times 85 goes into 579045.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 57 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 85 fits into 57 0 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 57, we end up with 57.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 57 and continue with: 579 / 85

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 579 by 85, we get 6 with a remainder of 69.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 510 from 579 to get 69.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 69, then repeat: 690 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
85 goes into 690 8 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 68.0
Deduct 680 from 690 and we're left with 10.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 104 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
85 goes into 104 1 times with a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 681.0
If we subtract 85 from 104, we get 19.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 195 / 85

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 195 by 85, we get 2 and a remainder of 25.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6812.0
If we take 170 away from 195, 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.

Advancing to step 7:
85 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6812.2
Subtract 170 from 250 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 800 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6812.29
If we subtract 765 from 800, we 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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 350 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6812.294
Subtract 340 from 350 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 100 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6812.2941
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.

Moving on to step 11:
150 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 65.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6812.29411
Subtracting 85 from 150 leaves us 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.

The final result is 6812.29411 with a remainder of 6.5e-05.
