We're dividing 125962 by 85 
Our goal is to divide 125962 by 85.

Step 1:
The number 85 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
12 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 125 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 125 1 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 85 from 125 and we're left with 40.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 409 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 409 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 340 from 409 to get 69.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 69 and continue with: 696 / 85

On to step 5:
When dividing 696 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 148.0
Subtract 680 from 696 to get 16.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 162 / 85

Step 6:
162 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 77.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1481.0
Subtracting 85 from 162 leaves us with 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
770 divided by 85 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1481.9
Deduct 765 from 770 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 8:
85 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1481.9
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 500 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1481.905
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.

Moving on to step 10:
85 goes into 750 8 times with a remainder of 70.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1481.9058
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.

On to step 11:
85 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1481.90588
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 680 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1481.90588 with a remaining 2e-05.
