221206 ÷ 87 
Our goal is to divide 221206 by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
87 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 22 / 87

Step 2:
87 goes into 22 0 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 22, we end up with 22.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 221 / 87

On to step 3:
87 goes into 221 2 times with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 174 from 221, we get 47.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 472 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
87 can be fit into 472 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 435 from 472 and we're left with 37.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 370 / 87

Step 5:
If we divide 370 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 254.0
If we subtract 348 from 370, we get 22.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 226 / 87

On to step 6:
When dividing 226 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2542.0
Deduct 174 from 226 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 520 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 85.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2542.5
Subtracting 435 from 520 leaves us with 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Step 8:
850 divided by 87 is 9 with a remainder of 67.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2542.59
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 783 from 850.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 670 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 61.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2542.597
Subtracting 609 from 670 leaves us with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
610 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2542.5977
Deduct 609 from 610 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The final result is 2542.5977 with a remainder of 1e-05.
