Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 6872 from 7467 leaves us with 595.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 595, then carry on: 5958 / 859

Advancing to step 5:
The number 859 fits into 5958 6 times, leaving a remainder of 804.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 86.0
The remainder is 804 after subtracting 5154 from 5958.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 804, then carry on: 8049 / 859

On to step 6:
859 can be fit into 8049 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 318.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 869.0
If we take 7731 away from 8049, we end up with 318.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 318 and continue with: 3184 / 859

Going ahead to step 7:
859 goes into 3184 3 times with a remainder of 607.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8693.0
If we subtract 2577 from 3184, we get 607.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 607, then carry on: 6077 / 859

Going ahead to step 8:
6077 divided by 859 is 7 with a remainder of 64.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 86937.0
Subtracting 6013 from 6077 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
640 divided by 859 is 0 with a remainder of 640.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 86937.0
Subtract 0 from 640 to get 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 859 fits into 6400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 387.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86937.07
The remainder is 387 after subtracting 6013 from 6400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3870, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 3870 by 859, we get 4 and a remainder of 434.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 86937.074
The remainder is 434 after subtracting 3436 from 3870.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 859 fits into 4340 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 86937.0745
If we take 4295 away from 4340, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 450 by 859, we get 0 with a remainder of 450.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 86937.0745
The remainder is 450 after subtracting 0 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4500, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
859 can be fit into 4500 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 205.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 86937.074505
The remainder is 205 after subtracting 4295 from 4500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2050, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 859 fits into 2050 2 times, leaving a remainder of 332.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86937.0745052
Subtract 1718 from 2050 to get 332.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
If we divide 3320 by 859, we get 3 and a remainder of 743.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86937.07450523
The remainder is 743 after subtracting 2577 from 3320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7430, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 86937.07450523, and the remainder is 7.43e-07.
