Let's divide 317131 by 85
We want to figure out the number of times 317131 can be divided by 85.

Step 1:
85 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 85

On to step 2:
If we divide 31 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 317 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 317 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 255 from 317 to get 62.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 621 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
85 can be fit into 621 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtracting 595 from 621 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 263 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
85 goes into 263 3 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 373.0
Deduct 255 from 263 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 81 / 85

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 81 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 81.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3730.0
If we take 0 away from 81, we end up with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 85 fits into 810 9 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3730.9
If we subtract 765 from 810, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 450 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3730.95
Deduct 425 from 450 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 250 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 80.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3730.952
Subtracting 170 from 250 leaves us with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 800 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 35.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3730.9529
Deduct 765 from 800 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 350 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3730.95294
If we subtract 340 from 350, we 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.

Step 12:
The number 85 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3730.952941
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.

Step 13:
85 can be fit into 150 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3730.9529411
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.

The quotient of the division is 3730.9529411, and the remainder is 6.5e-07.
