We look at the division of 85423 by 41 
We want to divide 85423 by 41.

Step 1:
8 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 85 / 41

Step 2:
41 goes into 85 2 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 82 away from 85, we end up with 3.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 34 / 41

Advancing to step 3:
41 can be fit into 34 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtract 0 from 34 to get 34.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 342 / 41

On to step 4:
342 divided by 41 is 8 with a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 208.0
Deduct 328 from 342 and we're left with 14.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 143 / 41

Step 5:
When dividing 143 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2083.0
Subtracting 123 from 143 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.

Let's proceed to step 6:
41 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2083.4
Subtract 164 from 200 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
360 divided by 41 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2083.48
If we subtract 328 from 360, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
320 divided by 41 is 7 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2083.487
Subtracting 287 from 320 leaves us 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 9:
If we divide 330 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2083.4878
If we take 328 away from 330, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 10:
41 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2083.4878
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
200 divided by 41 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2083.487804
If we take 164 away from 200, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 41 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2083.4878048
If we subtract 328 from 360, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 320 by 41, we get 7 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2083.48780487
If we take 287 away from 320, 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2083.48780487 with a balance of 3.3e-08.
