Let's divide 41466 by 85
Our goal is to divide 41466 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 85 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 41 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 41 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 41.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 41 and we're left with 41.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 41 and continue with: 414 / 85

Step 3:
When dividing 414 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 74.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 340 from 414 to get 74.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 746 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 746 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtracting 680 from 746 leaves us with 66.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 66, then carry on: 666 / 85

Step 5:
When dividing 666 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 71.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 487.0
If we subtract 595 from 666, we get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
85 can be fit into 710 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 487.8
If we subtract 680 from 710, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
85 can be fit into 300 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 487.83
Subtracting 255 from 300 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 450 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 487.835
Deduct 425 from 450 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 9:
250 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 80.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 487.8352
Deduct 170 from 250 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 10:
85 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 35.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 487.83529
If we take 765 away from 800, we end up 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 11:
85 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 487.835294
If we take 340 away from 350, we end up 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 12:
The number 85 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 487.8352941
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 150 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 487.83529411
Subtracting 85 from 150 leaves us with 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 487.83529411 with a remaining 6.5e-08.
