We look at the division of 698742 by 85 
Let's see how many times 85 fits into 698742.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 85 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 69 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
The number 85 fits into 69 0 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 69 to get 69.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 69, then repeat: 698 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
85 goes into 698 8 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 680 from 698 leaves us with 18.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 187 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
85 goes into 187 2 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 82.0
Subtract 170 from 187 to get 17.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 174 / 85

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 174 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 822.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 170 from 174.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 85

On to step 6:
The number 85 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8220.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
85 can be fit into 420 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8220.4
If we subtract 340 from 420, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
85 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8220.49
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 765 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8220.494
If we take 340 away from 350, 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.

Advancing to step 10:
100 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8220.4941
Subtract 85 from 100 to 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 11:
When dividing 150 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 65.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8220.49411
If we take 85 away from 150, we end up with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8220.49411 with a balance of 6.5e-05.
