285741 divided by 85 
We want to figure out the number of times 285741 can be divided by 85.

Moving on to step 1:
85 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 28 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 28.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 285 / 85

On to step 3:
When dividing 285 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 30.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 255 from 285, we get 30.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 307 / 85

On to step 4:
If we divide 307 by 85, we get 3 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 33.0
Subtracting 255 from 307 leaves us with 52.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 524 / 85

On to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 524 6 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 336.0
Deduct 510 from 524 and we're left with 14.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 141 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 141 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3361.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 85 from 141.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
85 goes into 560 6 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3361.6
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 510 from 560.
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.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3361.65
If we take 425 away from 500, we end up with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
85 goes into 750 8 times with a remainder of 70.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3361.658
Subtracting 680 from 750 leaves us 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: 3361.6588
If we take 680 away from 700, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3361.6588 with a remaining 0.0002.
