We divide 461854 by 87
We want to divide 461854 by 87.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 87

Going ahead to step 2:
87 goes into 46 0 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 46 and we're left with 46.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 461 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
87 goes into 461 5 times with a remainder of 26.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 435 from 461 leaves us with 26.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 268 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
87 goes into 268 3 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 53.0
If we subtract 261 from 268, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 75 / 87

On to step 5:
87 goes into 75 0 times with a remainder of 75.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 530.0
Subtract 0 from 75 to get 75.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 75 and repeat the process: 754 / 87

On to step 6:
The number 87 fits into 754 8 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5308.0
If we subtract 696 from 754, we get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 580 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 58.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5308.6
Subtracting 522 from 580 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 580 6 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5308.66
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 522 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

The final result is 5308.66 with a remainder of 0.058.
