We're dividing 747842 by 85 
We want to figure out the number of times 747842 can be divided by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
85 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
85 can be fit into 74 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 74 to get 74.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 747 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 747 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 67.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 680 from 747 to get 67.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 67 and continue: 678 / 85

Step 4:
When dividing 678 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 83.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 87.0
Subtracting 595 from 678 leaves us with 83.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 83, then carry on: 834 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 834 9 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 879.0
Subtracting 765 from 834 leaves us with 69.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 69, then carry on: 692 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 85 fits into 692 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8798.0
If we take 680 away from 692, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 120 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8798.1
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 85 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
85 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8798.14
Subtract 340 from 350 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
85 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8798.141
If we subtract 85 from 100, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 85 fits into 150 1 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8798.1411
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 85 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

The final result is 8798.1411 with a remainder of 0.00065.
