We divide 978482 by 85
We want to figure out the number of times 978482 can be divided by 85.

Moving on to step 1:
85 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 97 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 85 from 97.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 85

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 128 1 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 85 from 128, we get 43.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 434 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 434 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 9.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 115.0
Subtracting 425 from 434 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 98 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1151.0
If we subtract 85 from 98, we get 13.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 132 / 85

Step 6:
When dividing 132 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 47.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11511.0
Deduct 85 from 132 and we're left with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 470 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11511.5
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 425 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 85 fits into 450 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11511.55
Subtract 425 from 450 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 11511.55, with a leftover of 0.025.
