We're dividing 232852 by 87 
Our goal is to divide 232852 by 87.

Advancing to step 1:
87 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 87

Step 2:
The number 87 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 23, we get 23.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 232 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
The number 87 fits into 232 2 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 174 from 232.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 588 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 588 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 26.0
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 522 from 588.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 66, then carry on: 665 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
87 can be fit into 665 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 267.0
Subtracting 609 from 665 leaves us with 56.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 562 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
562 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2676.0
Subtracting 522 from 562 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
87 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2676.4
Deduct 348 from 400 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
87 goes into 520 5 times with a remainder of 85.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2676.45
Deduct 435 from 520 and we're left with 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 850 9 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2676.459
Subtracting 783 from 850 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 670 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2676.4597
If we take 609 away from 670, we end up with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 610 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2676.45977
Subtract 609 from 610 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The final result is 2676.45977 with a remainder of 1e-06.
