We divide 12506 by 85
We want to divide 12506 by 85.

Moving on to step 1:
85 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 12 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 125 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
85 goes into 125 1 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 85 from 125 to get 40.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 400 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 400 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 60.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 340 from 400 leaves us with 60.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 60 and continue with: 606 / 85

Step 5:
If we divide 606 by 85, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 147.0
Subtract 595 from 606 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 110 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 25.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 147.1
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 85 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 85 fits into 250 2 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 147.12
Subtracting 170 from 250 leaves us 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.

Step 8:
800 divided by 85 is 9 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 147.129
Deduct 765 from 800 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 147.1294
If we subtract 340 from 350, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
85 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 147.12941
If we take 85 away from 100, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 150 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 147.129411
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.

Our division results in 147.129411 with a remaining 6.5e-06.
