Let's divide 148340 by 85
We want to divide 148340 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
85 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 148 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
85 goes into 148 1 times with a remainder of 63.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 85 from 148 and we're left with 63.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 63 and repeat the process: 633 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
85 goes into 633 7 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 595 from 633.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 384 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 384 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 174.0
If we take 340 away from 384, we end up with 44.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 440 / 85

Step 6:
The number 85 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1745.0
Subtract 425 from 440 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 150 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 65.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1745.1
If we subtract 85 from 150, we get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 650 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 55.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1745.17
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 595 from 650.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
85 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1745.176
Subtract 510 from 550 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 85 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1745.1764
If we take 340 away from 400, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
85 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1745.17647
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
50 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1745.17647
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up 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 13:
The number 85 fits into 500 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1745.1764705
Deduct 425 from 500 and we're left with 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 14:
The number 85 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1745.17647058
If we take 680 away from 750, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 1745.17647058 and a remainder of 7e-08.
