We're dividing 557819 by 85 
We want to divide 557819 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 85

Step 2:
85 goes into 55 0 times with a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 0 from 55.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 557 / 85

Step 3:
When dividing 557 by 85, we get 6 with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 510 from 557 to get 47.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 478 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 478 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 53.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 65.0
Subtract 425 from 478 to get 53.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 531 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 531 by 85, we get 6 with a remainder of 21.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 656.0
Subtracting 510 from 531 leaves us with 21.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 219 / 85

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 219 by 85, we get 2 and a remainder of 49.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6562.0
Subtracting 170 from 219 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 490 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 65.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6562.5
If we subtract 425 from 490, we 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.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 650 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 55.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6562.57
Subtract 595 from 650 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 550 6 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6562.576
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 510 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 85 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6562.5764
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 340 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 85 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6562.57647
If we take 595 away from 600, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 12:
85 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6562.57647
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
85 can be fit into 500 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6562.5764705
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 425 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 750 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 70.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6562.57647058
Deduct 680 from 750 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6562.57647058 with a remaining 7e-08.
