473926 ÷ 87 
We want to figure out the number of times 473926 can be divided by 87.

On to step 1:
87 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 87

Step 2:
The number 87 fits into 47 0 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 47, we get 47.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 473 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 473 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 435 away from 473, we end up with 38.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 389 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
389 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 41.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtracting 348 from 389 leaves us with 41.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 412 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 412 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 64.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 544.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 348 from 412.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 64 and repeat the process: 646 / 87

Step 6:
646 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5447.0
If we take 609 away from 646, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
87 goes into 370 4 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5447.4
Subtracting 348 from 370 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
220 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5447.42
Subtracting 174 from 220 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:
When dividing 460 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5447.425
Deduct 435 from 460 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 10:
87 can be fit into 250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5447.4252
Subtracting 174 from 250 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 87 fits into 760 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5447.42528
Deduct 696 from 760 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 640 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5447.425287
Subtracting 609 from 640 leaves us with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 87 fits into 310 3 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5447.4252873
Subtracting 261 from 310 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
87 goes into 490 5 times with a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5447.42528735
Deduct 435 from 490 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5447.42528735, and the remainder is 5.5e-08.
