We divide 992724 by 85
We want to divide 992724 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
85 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 99 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 99 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 85 away from 99, we end up with 14.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 142 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
85 goes into 142 1 times with a remainder of 57.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 85 away from 142, we end up with 57.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 57 and continue with: 577 / 85

On to step 4:
If we divide 577 by 85, we get 6 and a remainder of 67.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 116.0
Deduct 510 from 577 and we're left with 67.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 672 / 85

On to step 5:
When dividing 672 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 77.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1167.0
Subtract 595 from 672 to get 77.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 77 and continue with: 774 / 85

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 774 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 9.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11679.0
Deduct 765 from 774 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 85 fits into 90 1 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11679.1
Subtracting 85 from 90 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 8:
85 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11679.1
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 500 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11679.105
If we take 425 away from 500, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
85 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11679.1058
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 680 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 700 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11679.10588
If we take 680 away from 700, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11679.10588, and the remainder is 2e-05.
