We look at the division of 85478045 by 551 
Our goal is to divide 85478045 by 551.

Going ahead to step 1:
551 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 85 / 551

Moving on to step 2:
551 can be fit into 85 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 85.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 85 to get 85.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 85 and repeat the process: 854 / 551

Step 3:
The number 551 fits into 854 1 times, leaving a remainder of 303.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 551 from 854 to get 303.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 303, then repeat: 3037 / 551

Going ahead to step 4:
551 goes into 3037 5 times with a remainder of 282.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 2755 from 3037, we get 282.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 282 and repeat the process: 2828 / 551

On to step 5:
551 can be fit into 2828 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 155.0
Subtract 2755 from 2828 to get 73.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 73 and continue: 730 / 551

On to step 6:
551 goes into 730 1 times with a remainder of 179.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1551.0
The remainder is 179 after subtracting 551 from 730.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 179, then repeat: 1794 / 551

Moving on to step 7:
The number 551 fits into 1794 3 times, leaving a remainder of 141.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 15513.0
The remainder is 141 after subtracting 1653 from 1794.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 141 and continue with: 1415 / 551

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 1415 by 551, we get 2 with a remainder of 313.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 155132.0
Deduct 1102 from 1415 and we're left with 313.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
3130 divided by 551 is 5 with a remainder of 375.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 155132.5
The remainder is 375 after subtracting 2755 from 3130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3750, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
551 goes into 3750 6 times with a remainder of 444.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 155132.56
Subtract 3306 from 3750 to get 444.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4440, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 4440 by 551, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 155132.568
Subtract 4408 from 4440 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 12:
551 can be fit into 320 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 320.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 155132.568
If we subtract 0 from 320, we get 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
551 can be fit into 3200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 445.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 155132.56805
Subtracting 2755 from 3200 leaves us with 445.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
551 can be fit into 4450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 155132.568058
If we subtract 4408 from 4450, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 420 by 551, we get 0 and a remainder of 420.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 155132.568058
If we take 0 away from 420, we end up with 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4200, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
551 goes into 4200 7 times with a remainder of 343.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 155132.56805807
Subtracting 3857 from 4200 leaves us with 343.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3430, and continue the process.

Our division results in 155132.56805807 with a remaining 3.43e-07.
