We look at the division of 157848 by 85 
We want to divide 157848 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 85

Let's proceed to step 2:
15 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 157 / 85

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 157 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 72.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 85 from 157 leaves us with 72.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 728 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
85 goes into 728 8 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 680 from 728.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 484 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 484 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 59.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 185.0
Subtracting 425 from 484 leaves us with 59.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 59 and repeat the process: 598 / 85

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 85 fits into 598 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1857.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 595 from 598.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 85 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1857.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
85 can be fit into 300 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1857.03
If we subtract 255 from 300, we 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:
85 can be fit into 450 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1857.035
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.

Advancing to step 10:
250 divided by 85 is 2 with a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1857.0352
If we subtract 170 from 250, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 85 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1857.03529
If we subtract 765 from 800, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
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: 1857.035294
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 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1857.0352941
If we subtract 85 from 100, we 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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 150 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 65.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1857.03529411
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 1857.03529411 with a balance of 6.5e-08.
