Let's divide 874409 by 85
We want to divide 874409 by 85.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 85

Let's proceed to step 2:
87 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 85 from 87 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 85

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 24 by 85, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 24 and we're left with 24.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 244 / 85

Moving on to step 4:
The number 85 fits into 244 2 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 102.0
Subtract 170 from 244 to get 74.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 740 / 85

Step 5:
When dividing 740 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 60.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1028.0
Deduct 680 from 740 and we're left with 60.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 60, then carry on: 609 / 85

Step 6:
When dividing 609 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10287.0
If we subtract 595 from 609, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
140 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 55.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10287.1
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 85 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 550 by 85, we get 6 and a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10287.16
If we take 510 away from 550, 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 10287.164
If we subtract 340 from 400, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 600 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 5.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10287.1647
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 595 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
85 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10287.1647
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 500 by 85, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10287.164705
Subtract 425 from 500 to get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 85 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10287.1647058
If we take 680 away from 750, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
85 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10287.16470588
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.

The quotient of the division is 10287.16470588, and the remainder is 2e-08.
