Let's divide 486560 by 85
Our goal is to divide 486560 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
85 goes into 48 0 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 0 from 48.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 486 / 85

On to step 3:
When dividing 486 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 425 away from 486, we end up with 61.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 61, then carry on: 615 / 85

On to step 4:
615 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtracting 595 from 615 leaves us with 20.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 206 / 85

Going ahead to step 5:
206 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 572.0
If we subtract 170 from 206, we get 36.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 360 / 85

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 360 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5724.0
Subtract 340 from 360 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
85 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5724.2
Subtracting 170 from 200 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 8:
85 can be fit into 300 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5724.23
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 255 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 450 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5724.235
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 425 from 450.
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 10:
85 can be fit into 250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5724.2352
If we take 170 away from 250, we end up 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 11:
If we divide 800 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5724.23529
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 12:
The number 85 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5724.235294
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.

On to step 13:
85 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5724.2352941
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 14:
150 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 65.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5724.23529411
If we take 85 away from 150, we end up 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.

The final result is 5724.23529411 with a remainder of 6.5e-08.
