We divide 855973 by 70
We want to divide 855973 by 70.

Let's proceed to step 1:
70 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
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 / 70

Let's proceed to step 2:
85 divided by 70 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 70 away from 85, we end up with 15.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 155 / 70

Advancing to step 3:
70 goes into 155 2 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 140 from 155 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 159 / 70

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 159 by 70, we get 2 and a remainder of 19.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 122.0
If we take 140 away from 159, we end up with 19.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 197 / 70

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 70 fits into 197 2 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1222.0
Subtracting 140 from 197 leaves us with 57.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 573 / 70

On to step 6:
When dividing 573 by 70, we get 8 with a remainder of 13.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12228.0
Subtracting 560 from 573 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 130 by 70, we get 1 with a remainder of 60.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12228.1
Subtract 70 from 130 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 70 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12228.18
Subtract 560 from 600 to get 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 9:
When dividing 400 by 70, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12228.185
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 350 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
70 goes into 500 7 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12228.1857
If we take 490 away from 500, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 11:
100 divided by 70 is 1 with a remainder of 30.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12228.18571
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 70 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 300 by 70, we get 4 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12228.185714
Subtracting 280 from 300 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.

Step 13:
70 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12228.1857142
Subtract 140 from 200 to get 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 14:
The number 70 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12228.18571428
If we subtract 560 from 600, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 12228.18571428 and a remainder of 4e-08.
