216692 ÷ 87 
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 216692.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
87 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 216 / 87

Step 3:
When dividing 216 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 42.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 174 from 216 and we're left with 42.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 426 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 426 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 78.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 348 away from 426, we end up with 78.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 78 and continue with: 789 / 87

On to step 5:
87 can be fit into 789 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 249.0
Subtract 783 from 789 to get 6.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 87

On to step 6:
When dividing 62 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 62.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2490.0
Subtract 0 from 62 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 620 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2490.7
Deduct 609 from 620 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 110 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2490.71
Subtracting 87 from 110 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
87 can be fit into 230 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2490.712
Subtracting 174 from 230 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 560 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2490.7126
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 522 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
380 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2490.71264
If we subtract 348 from 380, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
87 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 59.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2490.712643
If we subtract 261 from 320, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
87 goes into 590 6 times with a remainder of 68.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2490.7126436
Subtracting 522 from 590 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
87 can be fit into 680 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2490.71264367
Subtracting 609 from 680 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2490.71264367, and the remainder is 7.1e-08.
