404993 ÷ 87 
Let's see how many times 87 fits into 404993.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
87 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 404 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
404 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 56.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 348 from 404.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 56 and continue: 569 / 87

Step 4:
When dividing 569 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 46.0
If we subtract 522 from 569, we get 47.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 479 / 87

Step 5:
479 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 44.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 465.0
Subtracting 435 from 479 leaves us with 44.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 443 / 87

On to step 6:
443 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4655.0
Subtract 435 from 443 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.

Advancing to step 7:
80 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 80.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4655.0
Subtract 0 from 80 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
87 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4655.09
Subtract 783 from 800 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 170 1 times, leaving a remainder of 83.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4655.091
Deduct 87 from 170 and we're left with 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 87 fits into 830 9 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4655.0919
Deduct 783 from 830 and we're left with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
87 can be fit into 470 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4655.09195
Subtract 435 from 470 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
87 can be fit into 350 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4655.091954
If we subtract 348 from 350, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
20 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4655.091954
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
87 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 26.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4655.09195402
Subtract 174 from 200 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 4655.09195402 and a remainder of 2.6e-08.
