Let's divide 852231 by 10
We want to divide 852231 by 10.

On to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 10, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 85 / 10

Going ahead to step 2:
10 goes into 85 8 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 80 from 85, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 10

Let's proceed to step 3:
10 goes into 52 5 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 85.0
Deduct 50 from 52 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 10

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 22 by 10, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 852.0
If we take 20 away from 22, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 10

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 23 by 10, we get 2 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8522.0
If we take 20 away from 23, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 10

Step 6:
10 can be fit into 31 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 85223.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 30 from 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 10 by 10, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 85223.1
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 10 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
10 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 85223.1
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 10 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 85223.1
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 85223.1, with a leftover of 0.0.
