Let's divide 427919 by 86
We want to divide 427919 by 86.

Moving on to step 1:
86 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 86

Advancing to step 2:
The number 86 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 427 / 86

On to step 3:
When dividing 427 by 86, we get 4 with a remainder of 83.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 344 from 427, we get 83.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 83 and repeat the process: 839 / 86

Step 4:
If we divide 839 by 86, we get 9 and a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we subtract 774 from 839, we get 65.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 65, then carry on: 651 / 86

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 651 by 86, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 497.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 602 from 651.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 499 / 86

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 499 by 86, we get 5 with a remainder of 69.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4975.0
If we subtract 430 from 499, we get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
86 goes into 690 8 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4975.8
If we subtract 688 from 690, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
20 divided by 86 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4975.8
If we take 0 away from 20, 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
200 divided by 86 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4975.802
Subtract 172 from 200 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 280 by 86, we get 3 with a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4975.8023
Subtract 258 from 280 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 220 by 86, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4975.80232
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 172 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
86 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4975.802325
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 430 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 500 by 86, we get 5 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4975.8023255
Deduct 430 from 500 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.

Our division results in 4975.8023255 with a remaining 7e-07.
