We look at the division of 250862 by 85 
Our goal is to divide 250862 by 85.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 85

Step 2:
If we divide 25 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 250 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
85 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 80.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 170 from 250 and we're left with 80.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 80, then repeat: 808 / 85

On to step 4:
When dividing 808 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 765 from 808 and we're left with 43.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 436 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
436 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 11.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 295.0
Deduct 425 from 436 and we're left with 11.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 112 / 85

Advancing to step 6:
112 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2951.0
Subtracting 85 from 112 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 270 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 15.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2951.3
Deduct 255 from 270 and we're left with 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 8:
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: 2951.31
Subtract 85 from 150 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
85 can be fit into 650 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2951.317
Subtract 595 from 650 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
85 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2951.3176
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 510 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 85 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2951.31764
If we take 340 away from 400, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 600 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2951.317647
Subtract 595 from 600 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
85 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2951.317647
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
85 can be fit into 500 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2951.31764705
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.

The final outcome is 2951.31764705, with a leftover of 7.5e-08.
