We look at the division of 317887 by 85 
Our goal is to divide 317887 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 31 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 31 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 31 to get 31.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 317 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
85 goes into 317 3 times with a remainder of 62.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 255 from 317 and we're left with 62.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 628 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
The number 85 fits into 628 7 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtracting 595 from 628 leaves us with 33.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 338 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 338 by 85, we get 3 and a remainder of 83.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 373.0
Deduct 255 from 338 and we're left with 83.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 83, then repeat: 837 / 85

Step 6:
837 divided by 85 is 9 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3739.0
Deduct 765 from 837 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 720 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3739.8
Subtracting 680 from 720 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 400 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3739.84
Subtract 340 from 400 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 9:
85 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3739.847
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 595 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 50 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3739.847
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 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 11:
85 goes into 500 5 times with a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3739.84705
Deduct 425 from 500 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
If we divide 750 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 70.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3739.847058
Deduct 680 from 750 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 700 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3739.8470588
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.

After the division, we end up with 3739.8470588 and a remainder of 2e-07.
