Let's divide 763171 by 85
We're looking to find how many times 85 goes into 763171.

On to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 76 / 85

On to step 2:
If we divide 76 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 76.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 76 to get 76.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 76 and continue with: 763 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 763 8 times, leaving a remainder of 83.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 680 away from 763, we end up with 83.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 83, then repeat: 831 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
85 can be fit into 831 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 89.0
Subtracting 765 from 831 leaves us with 66.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 66, then repeat: 667 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
85 can be fit into 667 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 897.0
Subtract 595 from 667 to get 72.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 72 and continue with: 721 / 85

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 85 fits into 721 8 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8978.0
If we subtract 680 from 721, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 85 fits into 410 4 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8978.4
Subtract 340 from 410 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 8:
85 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8978.48
Deduct 680 from 700 and we're left with 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 9:
200 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8978.482
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 10:
300 divided by 85 is 3 with a remainder of 45.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8978.4823
Deduct 255 from 300 and we're left 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.

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: 8978.48235
Subtracting 425 from 450 leaves us 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 12:
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: 8978.482352
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.

On to step 13:
The number 85 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 8978.4823529
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.

Advancing to step 14:
85 can be fit into 350 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8978.48235294
Subtracting 340 from 350 leaves us 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 quotient of the division is 8978.48235294, and the remainder is 1e-08.
