997285 ÷ 85 
Let's see how many times 85 fits into 997285.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 99 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 99 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 85 from 99.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 147 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 147 1 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 85 from 147 to get 62.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 622 / 85

Step 4:
85 goes into 622 7 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 117.0
If we take 595 away from 622, we end up with 27.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 278 / 85

On to step 5:
If we divide 278 by 85, we get 3 and a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1173.0
If we subtract 255 from 278, we get 23.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 235 / 85

Step 6:
235 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 65.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11732.0
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 170 from 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 650 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 55.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11732.7
Deduct 595 from 650 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 550 6 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11732.76
Deduct 510 from 550 and we're left 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.

Step 9:
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: 11732.764
Subtracting 340 from 400 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 600 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11732.7647
Deduct 595 from 600 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.

On to step 11:
85 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11732.7647
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 12:
When dividing 500 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11732.764705
If we subtract 425 from 500, we get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
85 goes into 750 8 times with a remainder of 70.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11732.7647058
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 680 from 750.
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 14:
If we divide 700 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11732.76470588
Subtracting 680 from 700 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 11732.76470588, with a leftover of 2e-08.
