We divide 164736 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 164736 can be divided by 87.

Step 1:
1 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 87

Step 2:
87 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 0 from 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 87

On to step 3:
The number 87 fits into 164 1 times, leaving a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 87 away from 164, we end up with 77.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 77, then repeat: 777 / 87

Step 4:
When dividing 777 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 81.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 696 from 777, we get 81.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 81 and continue: 813 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
87 can be fit into 813 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 189.0
If we take 783 away from 813, we end up with 30.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 306 / 87

Step 6:
306 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1893.0
If we subtract 261 from 306, 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.

Advancing to step 7:
87 can be fit into 450 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1893.5
Subtracting 435 from 450 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
87 goes into 150 1 times with a remainder of 63.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1893.51
Subtract 87 from 150 to get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
87 can be fit into 630 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1893.517
Subtract 609 from 630 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
87 can be fit into 210 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1893.5172
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 174 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 11:
360 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1893.51724
If we take 348 away from 360, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1893.517241
Subtracting 87 from 120 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
330 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 69.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1893.5172413
Subtract 261 from 330 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
87 goes into 690 7 times with a remainder of 81.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1893.51724137
Deduct 609 from 690 and we're left with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

The final result is 1893.51724137 with a remainder of 8.1e-08.
