729719 divided by 85 
Our goal is to divide 729719 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
7 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
72 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 729 / 85

On to step 3:
729 divided by 85 is 8 with a remainder of 49.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 680 from 729.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 497 / 85

On to step 4:
85 can be fit into 497 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 85.0
If we take 425 away from 497, we end up with 72.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 721 / 85

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 721 by 85, we get 8 and a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 858.0
Subtract 680 from 721 to get 41.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 419 / 85

On to step 6:
419 divided by 85 is 4 with a remainder of 79.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8584.0
Subtracting 340 from 419 leaves us with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 790 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8584.9
If we take 765 away from 790, we end up 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 8:
85 can be fit into 250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8584.92
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 170 from 250.
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 9:
If we divide 800 by 85, we get 9 and a remainder of 35.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8584.929
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 765 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 350 by 85, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8584.9294
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.

Advancing to step 11:
85 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8584.92941
Subtract 85 from 100 to 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.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 150 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8584.929411
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.

Our division results in 8584.929411 with a remaining 6.5e-06.
