We're dividing 999251 by 87 
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 999251.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 87 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 99 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
87 goes into 99 1 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 87 from 99 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 129 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
129 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 87 from 129 leaves us with 42.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 422 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 422 4 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 114.0
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 348 from 422.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 74, then carry on: 745 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
87 can be fit into 745 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1148.0
Deduct 696 from 745 and we're left with 49.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 491 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 491 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 56.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11485.0
If we subtract 435 from 491, we get 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 7:
87 goes into 560 6 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11485.6
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 522 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 380 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11485.64
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 348 from 380.
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 9:
When dividing 320 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 59.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11485.643
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
87 goes into 590 6 times with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11485.6436
Subtracting 522 from 590 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 11:
87 goes into 680 7 times with a remainder of 71.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11485.64367
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
87 can be fit into 710 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11485.643678
Subtracting 696 from 710 leaves us with 14.
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 13:
The number 87 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11485.6436781
If we subtract 87 from 140, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Step 14:
87 can be fit into 530 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 11485.64367816
Subtract 522 from 530 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 11485.64367816 with a remainder of 8e-09.
