We're dividing 725955 by 85 
We're looking to find how many times 85 goes into 725955.

Going ahead to step 1:
85 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
72 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 725 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 725 8 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 680 from 725 and we're left with 45.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 459 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
459 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 85.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 425 from 459.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 345 / 85

Step 5:
345 divided by 85 is 4 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 854.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 340 from 345.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 85

Advancing to step 6:
85 goes into 55 0 times with a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8540.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 0 from 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
550 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8540.6
Subtracting 510 from 550 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8540.64
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 340 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 600 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8540.647
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 595 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 10:
85 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8540.647
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 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 11:
The number 85 fits into 500 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8540.64705
Subtract 425 from 500 to 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.

Step 12:
When dividing 750 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8540.647058
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
85 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8540.6470588
If we take 680 away from 700, we end up 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 result is 8540.6470588 with a remainder of 2e-07.
