Let's divide 331898 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 331898 can be divided by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 33 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 33 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 33.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 0 from 33.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 331 / 87

On to step 3:
87 can be fit into 331 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 261 from 331, we get 70.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 70, then repeat: 708 / 87

On to step 4:
87 can be fit into 708 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 696 from 708, we get 12.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 129 / 87

On to step 5:
The number 87 fits into 129 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 381.0
Subtract 87 from 129 to get 42.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 428 / 87

Step 6:
87 can be fit into 428 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3814.0
Subtract 348 from 428 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3814.9
If we subtract 783 from 800, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
87 can be fit into 170 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3814.91
Deduct 87 from 170 and we're left with 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
87 goes into 830 9 times with a remainder of 47.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3814.919
If we subtract 783 from 830, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 470 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3814.9195
If we take 435 away from 470, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 350 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3814.91954
Subtract 348 from 350 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
20 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3814.91954
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
200 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3814.9195402
If we subtract 174 from 200, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 260 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 86.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3814.91954022
If we take 174 away from 260, we end up with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3814.91954022 with a remaining 8.6e-08.
