Let's divide 281913 by 85
Our goal is to divide 281913 by 85.

Step 1:
The number 85 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 85

Advancing to step 2:
28 divided by 85 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 281 / 85

Moving on to step 3:
The number 85 fits into 281 3 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 255 from 281.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 269 / 85

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 269 by 85, we get 3 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 33.0
Deduct 255 from 269 and we're left with 14.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 141 / 85

Moving on to step 5:
85 goes into 141 1 times with a remainder of 56.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 331.0
Deduct 85 from 141 and we're left with 56.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 563 / 85

Step 6:
If we divide 563 by 85, we get 6 and a remainder of 53.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3316.0
Subtract 510 from 563 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 530 by 85, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3316.6
If we subtract 510 from 530, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
85 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 30.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3316.62
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.

Step 9:
85 goes into 300 3 times with a remainder of 45.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3316.623
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 10:
The number 85 fits into 450 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3316.6235
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
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: 3316.62352
If we subtract 170 from 250, we 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
85 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3316.623529
If we take 765 away from 800, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 13:
350 divided by 85 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3316.6235294
If we take 340 away from 350, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 14:
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: 3316.62352941
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.

Our division results in 3316.62352941 with a remaining 1.5e-08.
