We look at the division of 299015 by 87 
Our goal is to divide 299015 by 87.

Step 1:
87 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 87

On to step 2:
87 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 29 and we're left with 29.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 299 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 299 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 261 away from 299, we end up with 38.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 380 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 380 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 34.0
If we subtract 348 from 380, we get 32.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 321 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
321 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 343.0
Deduct 261 from 321 and we're left with 60.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 60 and continue with: 605 / 87

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 605 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 83.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3436.0
If we take 522 away from 605, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
87 can be fit into 830 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3436.9
Subtracting 783 from 830 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 470 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3436.95
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 435 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3436.954
If we take 348 away from 350, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
87 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3436.954
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.

Advancing to step 11:
87 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3436.95402
Deduct 174 from 200 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
260 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 86.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3436.954022
Subtracting 174 from 260 leaves us 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 3436.954022 with a remaining 8.6e-06.
