Let's divide 245304 by 85
Let's see how many times 85 fits into 245304.

Moving on to step 1:
85 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 24 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up with 24.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 245 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 245 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 75.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 170 from 245 and we're left with 75.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 75 and continue: 753 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
85 can be fit into 753 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 680 from 753.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 73, then repeat: 730 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 730 8 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 288.0
Subtracting 680 from 730 leaves us with 50.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 504 / 85

Let's proceed to step 6:
504 divided by 85 is 5 with a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2885.0
If we subtract 425 from 504, we get 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Step 7:
85 goes into 790 9 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2885.9
Deduct 765 from 790 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 250 2 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2885.92
Subtract 170 from 250 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
85 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 35.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2885.929
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 10:
When dividing 350 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2885.9294
Deduct 340 from 350 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
100 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2885.92941
If we subtract 85 from 100, we 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.

On to step 12:
150 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 65.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2885.929411
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 2885.929411 with a remaining 6.5e-06.
