Let's divide 407293 by 85
We want to divide 407293 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 85 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 85

On to step 2:
40 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 407 / 85

Let's proceed to step 3:
85 goes into 407 4 times with a remainder of 67.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 340 away from 407, we end up with 67.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 67, then repeat: 672 / 85

Advancing to step 4:
85 goes into 672 7 times with a remainder of 77.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47.0
If we take 595 away from 672, we end up with 77.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 77 and continue with: 779 / 85

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 779 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 479.0
Deduct 765 from 779 and we're left with 14.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 143 / 85

Step 6:
85 can be fit into 143 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4791.0
If we take 85 away from 143, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 580 by 85, we get 6 and a remainder of 70.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4791.6
If we subtract 510 from 580, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 700 8 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4791.68
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 680 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4791.682
Deduct 170 from 200 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
85 goes into 300 3 times with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4791.6823
Deduct 255 from 300 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 450 by 85, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4791.68235
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 12:
When dividing 250 by 85, we get 2 with a remainder of 80.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4791.682352
Subtracting 170 from 250 leaves us with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 800 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 35.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4791.6823529
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
85 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4791.68235294
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 340 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4791.68235294 with a balance of 1e-08.
