We look at the division of 173675 by 87 
Our goal is to divide 173675 by 87.

Advancing to step 1:
87 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 87

On to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 173 / 87

On to step 3:
173 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 86.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 87 from 173 leaves us with 86.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 86 and repeat the process: 866 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
866 divided by 87 is 9 with a remainder of 83.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtracting 783 from 866 leaves us with 83.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 83 and continue: 837 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 87 fits into 837 9 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 199.0
Deduct 783 from 837 and we're left with 54.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 545 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 545 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1996.0
Subtracting 522 from 545 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.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 230 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 56.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1996.2
If we take 174 away from 230, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
If we divide 560 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 38.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1996.26
Deduct 522 from 560 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
87 can be fit into 380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1996.264
Deduct 348 from 380 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
320 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 59.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1996.2643
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 11:
The number 87 fits into 590 6 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1996.26436
If we subtract 522 from 590, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 680 7 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1996.264367
If we take 609 away from 680, we end up 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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 710 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1996.2643678
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 696 from 710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
140 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1996.26436781
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 87 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1996.26436781 and a remainder of 5.3e-08.
