We're dividing 740793 by 85 
We want to divide 740793 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 85 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
74 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 74.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 74 leaves us with 74.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 740 / 85

Let's proceed to step 3:
85 goes into 740 8 times with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 680 away from 740, we end up with 60.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 60 and continue with: 607 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
85 can be fit into 607 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 87.0
Deduct 595 from 607 and we're left with 12.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 129 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 129 1 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 871.0
If we take 85 away from 129, we end up with 44.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 443 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
443 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 18.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8715.0
Deduct 425 from 443 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
180 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8715.2
If we take 170 away from 180, 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
100 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8715.21
Subtracting 85 from 100 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 85 fits into 150 1 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8715.211
If we subtract 85 from 150, we get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 8715.211 and a remainder of 0.0065.
