We look at the division of 727338 by 87 
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 727338.

Let's proceed to step 1:
7 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
72 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 727 / 87

Step 3:
87 can be fit into 727 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 696 from 727, we get 31.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 313 / 87

Step 4:
313 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 83.0
Subtract 261 from 313 to get 52.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 523 / 87

Advancing to step 5:
87 can be fit into 523 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 836.0
If we subtract 522 from 523, we get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 87

On to step 6:
When dividing 18 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8360.0
If we subtract 0 from 18, we 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 7:
87 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8360.2
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.

Advancing to step 8:
60 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8360.2
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 9:
87 goes into 600 6 times with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8360.206
Subtract 522 from 600 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 780 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 84.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8360.2068
If we subtract 696 from 780, we get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
87 can be fit into 840 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8360.20689
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.

On to step 12:
87 can be fit into 570 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8360.206896
If we subtract 522 from 570, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 480 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8360.2068965
If we take 435 away from 480, 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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 450 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8360.20689655
Subtract 435 from 450 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8360.20689655 with a remaining 1.5e-08.
