We're dividing 285544 by 83 
Our goal is to divide 285544 by 83.

Moving on to step 1:
83 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 83

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 83 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 285 / 83

Step 3:
The number 83 fits into 285 3 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 249 from 285 and we're left with 36.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 365 / 83

Advancing to step 4:
83 can be fit into 365 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtracting 332 from 365 leaves us with 33.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 334 / 83

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 334 by 83, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 344.0
Subtract 332 from 334 to get 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 83

On to step 6:
When dividing 24 by 83, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3440.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 83 fits into 240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3440.2
Deduct 166 from 240 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
740 divided by 83 is 8 with a remainder of 76.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3440.28
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 664 from 740.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
83 can be fit into 760 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3440.289
Subtracting 747 from 760 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
130 divided by 83 is 1 with a remainder of 47.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3440.2891
Subtracting 83 from 130 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 11:
470 divided by 83 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3440.28915
If we subtract 415 from 470, we 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
550 divided by 83 is 6 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3440.289156
Subtract 498 from 550 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 520 by 83, we get 6 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3440.2891566
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 498 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final result is 3440.2891566 with a remainder of 2.2e-07.
