We divide 956542 by 85
We want to divide 956542 by 85.

Step 1:
9 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 95 / 85

Step 2:
85 goes into 95 1 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 85 away from 95, we end up with 10.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 106 / 85

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 106 1 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 85 away from 106, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 215 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
85 goes into 215 2 times with a remainder of 45.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 112.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 170 from 215.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 454 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 454 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 29.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1125.0
Subtract 425 from 454 to get 29.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 292 / 85

Moving on to step 6:
85 can be fit into 292 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11253.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 255 from 292.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
85 goes into 370 4 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11253.4
Subtract 340 from 370 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
85 can be fit into 300 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11253.43
Subtract 255 from 300 to get 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 9:
The number 85 fits into 450 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11253.435
Deduct 425 from 450 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 10:
85 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11253.4352
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.

Advancing to step 11:
800 divided by 85 is 9 with a remainder of 35.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11253.43529
If we take 765 away from 800, we end up 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 12:
85 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11253.435294
Deduct 340 from 350 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
85 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11253.4352941
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
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: 11253.43529411
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.

The quotient of the division is 11253.43529411, and the remainder is 6.5e-08.
