998609 divided by 85 
We want to divide 998609 by 85.

Advancing to step 1:
85 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 85

Going ahead to step 2:
85 goes into 99 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 85 away from 99, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 148 / 85

Step 3:
When dividing 148 by 85, we get 1 with a remainder of 63.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 85 from 148.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 63 and continue: 636 / 85

Going ahead to step 4:
636 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 41.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 117.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 595 from 636.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 410 / 85

On to step 5:
If we divide 410 by 85, we get 4 and a remainder of 70.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1174.0
If we take 340 away from 410, we end up with 70.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 70, then repeat: 709 / 85

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 709 by 85, we get 8 with a remainder of 29.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11748.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 680 from 709.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 290 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 35.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11748.3
Subtract 255 from 290 to 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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 85 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11748.34
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.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 100 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11748.341
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.

Step 10:
85 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 65.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11748.3411
If we take 85 away from 150, we end up with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 11748.3411, with a leftover of 0.00065.
