Let's divide 4705888 by 987
We want to figure out the number of times 4705888 can be divided by 987.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 987 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 987

Moving on to step 2:
47 divided by 987 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 47 to get 47.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 470 / 987

Step 3:
987 goes into 470 0 times with a remainder of 470.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 470 after subtracting 0 from 470.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 470 and continue: 4705 / 987

Advancing to step 4:
987 can be fit into 4705 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 757.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 3948 from 4705 to get 757.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 757 and continue with: 7578 / 987

Advancing to step 5:
7578 divided by 987 is 7 with a remainder of 669.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 47.0
Subtracting 6909 from 7578 leaves us with 669.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 669 and continue: 6698 / 987

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 987 fits into 6698 6 times, leaving a remainder of 776.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 476.0
Subtracting 5922 from 6698 leaves us with 776.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 776 and continue with: 7768 / 987

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 7768 by 987, we get 7 and a remainder of 859.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4767.0
If we subtract 6909 from 7768, we get 859.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 8590 by 987, we get 8 with a remainder of 694.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4767.8
Deduct 7896 from 8590 and we're left with 694.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6940, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 6940 by 987, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4767.87
If we take 6909 away from 6940, we end up 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 10:
When dividing 310 by 987, we get 0 with a remainder of 310.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4767.87
Deduct 0 from 310 and we're left with 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
987 can be fit into 3100 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 139.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4767.8703
If we subtract 2961 from 3100, we get 139.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1390, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
987 goes into 1390 1 times with a remainder of 403.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4767.87031
Subtract 987 from 1390 to get 403.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4030, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 4030 by 987, we get 4 and a remainder of 82.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4767.870314
The remainder is 82 after subtracting 3948 from 4030.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
987 goes into 820 0 times with a remainder of 820.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4767.870314
Subtract 0 from 820 to get 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8200, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 987 fits into 8200 8 times, leaving a remainder of 304.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4767.87031408
The remainder is 304 after subtracting 7896 from 8200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

The final result is 4767.87031408 with a remainder of 3.04e-07.
