We look at the division of 747961 by 87 
We want to divide 747961 by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 74.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 0 from 74.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 747 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
87 can be fit into 747 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 696 from 747.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 519 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
87 goes into 519 5 times with a remainder of 84.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 85.0
Deduct 435 from 519 and we're left with 84.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 84, then repeat: 846 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 846 by 87, we get 9 with a remainder of 63.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 859.0
Subtract 783 from 846 to get 63.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 63, then repeat: 631 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
87 can be fit into 631 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8597.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 609 from 631.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8597.2
Subtracting 174 from 220 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 460 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8597.25
Subtract 435 from 460 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
87 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8597.252
Deduct 174 from 250 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 760 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8597.2528
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 696 from 760.
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 11:
When dividing 640 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8597.25287
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 609 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Step 12:
310 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8597.252873
Deduct 261 from 310 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
87 goes into 490 5 times with a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8597.2528735
Deduct 435 from 490 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
87 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8597.25287356
Subtracting 522 from 550 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 8597.25287356, with a leftover of 2.8e-08.
