Let's divide 914878 by 85
We want to figure out the number of times 914878 can be divided by 85.

On to step 1:
The number 85 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 91 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 91 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 85 from 91 to get 6.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 64 / 85

Step 3:
The number 85 fits into 64 0 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 64, we get 64.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 64, then repeat: 648 / 85

Step 4:
The number 85 fits into 648 7 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 107.0
If we subtract 595 from 648, we get 53.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 537 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 537 by 85, we get 6 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1076.0
Deduct 510 from 537 and we're left with 27.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 278 / 85

Advancing to step 6:
278 divided by 85 is 3 with a remainder of 23.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10763.0
Subtracting 255 from 278 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
85 goes into 230 2 times with a remainder of 60.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10763.2
If we subtract 170 from 230, we 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 600 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10763.27
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.

Step 9:
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: 10763.27
Deduct 0 from 50 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 10:
85 can be fit into 500 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10763.2705
Subtract 425 from 500 to get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
85 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10763.27058
Subtract 680 from 750 to get 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 12:
When dividing 700 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 20.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10763.270588
If we subtract 680 from 700, we 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.

The quotient of the division is 10763.270588, and the remainder is 2e-06.
