6985 divided by 84 
Let's see how many times 84 fits into 6985.

Let's proceed to step 1:
84 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 69 / 84

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 84 fits into 69 0 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 69, we get 69.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 69, then repeat: 698 / 84

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 698 by 84, we get 8 with a remainder of 26.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 672 from 698, we get 26.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 265 / 84

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 84 fits into 265 3 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 83.0
Subtract 252 from 265 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 5:
84 goes into 130 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83.1
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 84 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 6:
If we divide 460 by 84, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83.15
If we take 420 away from 460, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
84 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 83.154
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 336 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 640 by 84, we get 7 and a remainder of 52.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83.1547
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 588 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
520 divided by 84 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 83.15476
If we take 504 away from 520, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
84 goes into 160 1 times with a remainder of 76.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83.154761
If we subtract 84 from 160, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 760 by 84, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 83.1547619
Deduct 756 from 760 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
84 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 83.1547619
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 83.1547619 with a balance of 4e-08.
