We look at the division of 50697 by 87 
We want to divide 50697 by 87.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 506 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 506 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 435 from 506 to get 71.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 719 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 719 8 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtract 696 from 719 to get 23.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 237 / 87

Step 5:
237 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 63.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 582.0
If we subtract 174 from 237, we get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 630 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 582.7
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 609 from 630.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 210 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 582.72
If we subtract 174 from 210, 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.

On to step 8:
360 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 582.724
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 348 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
120 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 582.7241
Deduct 87 from 120 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
87 can be fit into 330 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 582.72413
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 261 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
690 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 81.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 582.724137
If we take 609 away from 690, we end up with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
810 divided by 87 is 9 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 582.7241379
Deduct 783 from 810 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
87 can be fit into 270 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 582.72413793
Deduct 261 from 270 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Our division results in 582.72413793 with a remaining 9e-09.
