We divide 284851 by 83
We want to divide 284851 by 83.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 83, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
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 / 83

Advancing to step 2:
The number 83 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 284 / 83

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 284 by 83, we get 3 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 249 from 284 and we're left with 35.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 358 / 83

Advancing to step 4:
The number 83 fits into 358 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34.0
Deduct 332 from 358 and we're left with 26.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 265 / 83

Going ahead to step 5:
265 divided by 83 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 343.0
Subtracting 249 from 265 leaves us with 16.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 161 / 83

On to step 6:
The number 83 fits into 161 1 times, leaving a remainder of 78.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3431.0
Deduct 83 from 161 and we're left with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 83 fits into 780 9 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3431.9
If we take 747 away from 780, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
83 can be fit into 330 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 81.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3431.93
Deduct 249 from 330 and we're left with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
83 goes into 810 9 times with a remainder of 63.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3431.939
If we take 747 away from 810, we end up with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
83 can be fit into 630 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3431.9397
If we take 581 away from 630, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
490 divided by 83 is 5 with a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3431.93975
Deduct 415 from 490 and we're left with 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 12:
750 divided by 83 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3431.939759
If we take 747 away from 750, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 30 by 83, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3431.939759
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
300 divided by 83 is 3 with a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3431.93975903
Subtract 249 from 300 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3431.93975903, and the remainder is 5.1e-08.
