We divide 871178 by 85
Our goal is to divide 871178 by 85.

Let's proceed to step 1:
8 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 85

Let's proceed to step 2:
85 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 85 away from 87, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 85

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 21 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 211 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
85 goes into 211 2 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 102.0
Deduct 170 from 211 and we're left with 41.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 417 / 85

Step 5:
85 goes into 417 4 times with a remainder of 77.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1024.0
If we take 340 away from 417, we end up with 77.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 77, then repeat: 778 / 85

Let's proceed to step 6:
85 can be fit into 778 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10249.0
If we subtract 765 from 778, we 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
85 can be fit into 130 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10249.1
Deduct 85 from 130 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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 450 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10249.15
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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 250 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 80.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10249.152
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
85 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 10249.1529
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 11:
When dividing 350 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10249.15294
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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 85 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10249.152941
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 85 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 150 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 65.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10249.1529411
Subtracting 85 from 150 leaves us 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 outcome is 10249.1529411, with a leftover of 6.5e-07.
