We divide 509461 by 85
We want to figure out the number of times 509461 can be divided by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 50 / 85

On to step 2:
The number 85 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 509 / 85

Step 3:
85 can be fit into 509 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 84.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 425 from 509 to get 84.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 84, then repeat: 844 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 85 fits into 844 9 times, leaving a remainder of 79.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59.0
Deduct 765 from 844 and we're left with 79.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 79, then repeat: 796 / 85

On to step 5:
796 divided by 85 is 9 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 599.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 765 from 796.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 311 / 85

Step 6:
311 divided by 85 is 3 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5993.0
If we take 255 away from 311, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 560 by 85, we get 6 and a remainder of 50.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5993.6
Deduct 510 from 560 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 500 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5993.65
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 425 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 750 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5993.658
If we take 680 away from 750, we end up 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.

On to step 10:
85 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5993.6588
Subtract 680 from 700 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5993.6588 and a remainder of 0.0002.
