We divide 978572 by 85
Let's see how many times 85 fits into 978572.

Step 1:
85 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
85 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 85 from 97 leaves us with 12.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 128 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
128 divided by 85 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 85 from 128 leaves us with 43.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 435 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
The number 85 fits into 435 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 115.0
If we subtract 425 from 435, we get 10.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 107 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
The number 85 fits into 107 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1151.0
Subtract 85 from 107 to get 22.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 222 / 85

On to step 6:
When dividing 222 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11512.0
If we take 170 away from 222, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
520 divided by 85 is 6 with a remainder of 10.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11512.6
Deduct 510 from 520 and we're left 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 8:
When dividing 100 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11512.61
Subtract 85 from 100 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 150 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11512.611
Subtract 85 from 150 to get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11512.611 with a remaining 0.0065.
