We're dividing 279310 by 85 
Our goal is to divide 279310 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
85 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 85

Step 2:
85 goes into 27 0 times with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 279 / 85

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 279 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 255 from 279.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 243 / 85

Step 4:
85 goes into 243 2 times with a remainder of 73.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
Deduct 170 from 243 and we're left with 73.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 731 / 85

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 731 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 328.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 680 from 731.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 51 and repeat the process: 510 / 85

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 510 by 85, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3286.0
Subtracting 510 from 510 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3286.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3286.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 3286.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
