We're dividing 122118 by 85 
Our goal is to divide 122118 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
85 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
85 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 122 / 85

On to step 3:
122 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 85 from 122 to get 37.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 371 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 371 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 31.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 340 away from 371, we end up with 31.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 311 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 311 by 85, we get 3 and a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 143.0
Deduct 255 from 311 and we're left with 56.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 568 / 85

Advancing to step 6:
85 can be fit into 568 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1436.0
Deduct 510 from 568 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
85 goes into 580 6 times with a remainder of 70.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1436.6
Deduct 510 from 580 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 700 8 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1436.68
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 680 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
85 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1436.682
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 170 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 85 fits into 300 3 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1436.6823
If we subtract 255 from 300, we get 45.
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 11:
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: 1436.68235
Subtract 425 from 450 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
85 can be fit into 250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1436.682352
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 170 from 250.
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 13:
If we divide 800 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 35.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1436.6823529
Subtract 765 from 800 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
85 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1436.68235294
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.

The final result is 1436.68235294 with a remainder of 1e-08.
