Let's divide 215500 by 83
We want to divide 215500 by 83.

On to step 1:
The number 83 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 83

On to step 2:
If we divide 21 by 83, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 215 / 83

Let's proceed to step 3:
215 divided by 83 is 2 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 166 from 215, we get 49.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 495 / 83

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 83 fits into 495 5 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25.0
Subtract 415 from 495 to get 80.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 80 and continue: 800 / 83

Let's proceed to step 5:
800 divided by 83 is 9 with a remainder of 53.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 259.0
Subtract 747 from 800 to get 53.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 53, then repeat: 530 / 83

On to step 6:
83 goes into 530 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2596.0
If we take 498 away from 530, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 83 fits into 320 3 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2596.3
If we take 249 away from 320, we end up with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 710 by 83, we get 8 with a remainder of 46.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2596.38
Subtracting 664 from 710 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 460 by 83, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2596.385
If we subtract 415 from 460, 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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 450 by 83, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2596.3855
If we subtract 415 from 450, we 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.

The final result is 2596.3855 with a remainder of 0.00035.
