We're dividing 466887 by 84 
We want to divide 466887 by 84.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 46 / 84

On to step 2:
46 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 46, we end up with 46.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 466 / 84

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 84 fits into 466 5 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 420 from 466 and we're left with 46.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 468 / 84

Advancing to step 4:
The number 84 fits into 468 5 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55.0
Subtract 420 from 468 to get 48.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 488 / 84

Step 5:
When dividing 488 by 84, we get 5 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 555.0
If we take 420 away from 488, we end up with 68.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 68 and continue: 687 / 84

On to step 6:
84 goes into 687 8 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5558.0
Subtract 672 from 687 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.

Moving on to step 7:
150 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 66.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5558.1
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 84 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 84 fits into 660 7 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5558.17
Deduct 588 from 660 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 720 by 84, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5558.178
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 672 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
84 goes into 480 5 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5558.1785
Deduct 420 from 480 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.

On to step 11:
84 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5558.17857
If we subtract 588 from 600, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
120 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 36.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5558.178571
If we subtract 84 from 120, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
84 can be fit into 360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5558.1785714
Subtracting 336 from 360 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
240 divided by 84 is 2 with a remainder of 72.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5558.17857142
Subtract 168 from 240 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5558.17857142 with a remaining 7.2e-08.
