We divide 86487 by 37
We want to divide 86487 by 37.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 37 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 86 / 37

Going ahead to step 2:
86 divided by 37 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 74 from 86.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 124 / 37

On to step 3:
When dividing 124 by 37, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we subtract 111 from 124, we get 13.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 138 / 37

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 138 by 37, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 233.0
Deduct 111 from 138 and we're left with 27.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 277 / 37

Moving on to step 5:
277 divided by 37 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2337.0
Subtracting 259 from 277 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
180 divided by 37 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2337.4
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 148 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 320 by 37, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2337.48
Subtract 296 from 320 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
37 goes into 240 6 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2337.486
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 222 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
37 can be fit into 180 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2337.4864
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 148 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
37 goes into 320 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2337.48648
Subtract 296 from 320 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 240 by 37, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2337.486486
Subtract 222 from 240 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 180 by 37, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2337.4864864
Deduct 148 from 180 and we're left 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 13:
320 divided by 37 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2337.48648648
Subtracting 296 from 320 leaves us 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.

The final result is 2337.48648648 with a remainder of 2.4e-08.
