We're dividing 479855 by 86 
Our goal is to divide 479855 by 86.

On to step 1:
The number 86 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 86

Step 2:
If we divide 47 by 86, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 479 / 86

Going ahead to step 3:
86 can be fit into 479 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 430 from 479.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 498 / 86

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 498 by 86, we get 5 and a remainder of 68.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we take 430 away from 498, we end up with 68.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 685 / 86

On to step 5:
86 goes into 685 7 times with a remainder of 83.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 557.0
If we take 602 away from 685, we end up with 83.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 83, then carry on: 835 / 86

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 835 by 86, we get 9 with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5579.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 774 from 835.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 610 by 86, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5579.7
Subtracting 602 from 610 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 8:
86 can be fit into 80 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5579.7
If we take 0 away from 80, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
86 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5579.709
If we take 774 away from 800, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 86 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5579.7093
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 258 from 260.
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 11:
86 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5579.7093
Subtract 0 from 20 to 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.

Step 12:
200 divided by 86 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5579.709302
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 172 from 200.
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 13:
280 divided by 86 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5579.7093023
Deduct 258 from 280 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 86 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5579.70930232
Subtracting 172 from 220 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final result is 5579.70930232 with a remainder of 4.8e-08.
