407385 ÷ 87 
We want to figure out the number of times 407385 can be divided by 87.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
87 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 407 / 87

On to step 3:
If we divide 407 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 59.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 348 from 407, we get 59.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 59 and continue with: 593 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 593 6 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 46.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 522 from 593.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 718 / 87

Step 5:
If we divide 718 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 468.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 696 from 718.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 225 / 87

On to step 6:
If we divide 225 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 51.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4682.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 174 from 225.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 510 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4682.5
Deduct 435 from 510 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
87 goes into 750 8 times with a remainder of 54.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4682.58
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 696 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 540 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4682.586
Subtract 522 from 540 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 87 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4682.5862
If we subtract 174 from 180, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 60 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4682.5862
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
600 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 78.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4682.586206
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 522 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
780 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 84.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4682.5862068
Subtracting 696 from 780 leaves us with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 840 by 87, we get 9 with a remainder of 57.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4682.58620689
If we take 783 away from 840, we end up with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

The final result is 4682.58620689 with a remainder of 5.7e-08.
