879944 ÷ 85 
Our goal is to divide 879944 by 85.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 85, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 85

On to step 2:
85 goes into 87 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 85 from 87.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 85

Let's proceed to step 3:
85 goes into 29 0 times with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 29 to get 29.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 299 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 299 by 85, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 103.0
Deduct 255 from 299 and we're left with 44.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 444 / 85

Step 5:
The number 85 fits into 444 5 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1035.0
Subtracting 425 from 444 leaves us with 19.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 194 / 85

Step 6:
The number 85 fits into 194 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10352.0
Subtract 170 from 194 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 240 by 85, we get 2 and a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10352.2
Deduct 170 from 240 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.

On to step 8:
85 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10352.28
Deduct 680 from 700 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 85 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10352.282
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 170 from 200.
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 10:
300 divided by 85 is 3 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 10352.2823
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.

Step 11:
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: 10352.28235
Subtracting 425 from 450 leaves us 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:
85 can be fit into 250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10352.282352
Subtract 170 from 250 to 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 800 by 85, we get 9 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10352.2823529
Deduct 765 from 800 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 350 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10352.28235294
Subtract 340 from 350 to get 10.
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 10352.28235294 with a balance of 1e-08.
