We divide 866947 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 866947 can be divided by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 87 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 86 / 87

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 86 0 times, leaving a remainder of 86.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 86 leaves us with 86.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 86, then repeat: 866 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 866 by 87, we get 9 with a remainder of 83.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 783 from 866 to get 83.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 83 and continue: 839 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 839 9 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 99.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 783 from 839.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 56, then carry on: 564 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 87 fits into 564 6 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 996.0
Deduct 522 from 564 and we're left with 42.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 427 / 87

Step 6:
If we divide 427 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 79.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9964.0
Subtract 348 from 427 to get 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
87 can be fit into 790 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9964.9
Subtract 783 from 790 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 70 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9964.9
If we take 0 away from 70, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
700 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9964.908
If we take 696 away from 700, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
87 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9964.908
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 87 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9964.90804
Subtract 348 from 400 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
87 can be fit into 520 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 85.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9964.908045
Subtracting 435 from 520 leaves us with 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
850 divided by 87 is 9 with a remainder of 67.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9964.9080459
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 783 from 850.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
87 goes into 670 7 times with a remainder of 61.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9964.90804597
Deduct 609 from 670 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9964.90804597 with a remaining 6.1e-08.
