We divide 287496 by 83
Our goal is to divide 287496 by 83.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 83 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 83

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 83, we get 0 with a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 287 / 83

Going ahead to step 3:
287 divided by 83 is 3 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 249 from 287.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 384 / 83

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 384 by 83, we get 4 with a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34.0
If we subtract 332 from 384, we get 52.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 529 / 83

Step 5:
529 divided by 83 is 6 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 346.0
If we take 498 away from 529, we end up with 31.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 316 / 83

Advancing to step 6:
316 divided by 83 is 3 with a remainder of 67.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3463.0
If we take 249 away from 316, we end up with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 670 by 83, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3463.8
Subtract 664 from 670 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 83 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3463.8
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 83 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3463.807
Subtract 581 from 600 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 190 by 83, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3463.8072
Deduct 166 from 190 and we're left with 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 11:
If we divide 240 by 83, we get 2 and a remainder of 74.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3463.80722
If we subtract 166 from 240, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3463.80722 with a balance of 7.4e-05.
