We're dividing 549422 by 85 
We want to divide 549422 by 85.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 54 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
The number 85 fits into 54 0 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 54 to get 54.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 54 and repeat the process: 549 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 549 6 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 510 away from 549, we end up with 39.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 394 / 85

On to step 4:
When dividing 394 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 54.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 64.0
Subtract 340 from 394 to get 54.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 542 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 542 by 85, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 646.0
Subtracting 510 from 542 leaves us with 32.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 322 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
85 goes into 322 3 times with a remainder of 67.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6463.0
Deduct 255 from 322 and we're left with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Step 7:
670 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 75.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6463.7
If we take 595 away from 670, we end up 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.

Step 8:
If we divide 750 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6463.78
Subtracting 680 from 750 leaves us 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 700 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6463.788
Deduct 680 from 700 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 6463.788 with a remaining 0.002.
