878974 ÷ 83 
We want to divide 878974 by 83.

Moving on to step 1:
83 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 83

On to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 83, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 83 from 87 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 83

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 48 by 83, we get 0 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 489 / 83

Step 4:
The number 83 fits into 489 5 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 105.0
Subtracting 415 from 489 leaves us with 74.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 747 / 83

Let's proceed to step 5:
83 goes into 747 9 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1059.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 747 from 747.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 83

Step 6:
4 divided by 83 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10590.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
83 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10590.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
400 divided by 83 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10590.04
If we subtract 332 from 400, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 680 by 83, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10590.048
Subtract 664 from 680 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
83 goes into 160 1 times with a remainder of 77.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10590.0481
If we subtract 83 from 160, we get 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 83 fits into 770 9 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10590.04819
If we subtract 747 from 770, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 230 by 83, we get 2 and a remainder of 64.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10590.048192
Deduct 166 from 230 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
83 can be fit into 640 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 10590.0481927
If we subtract 581 from 640, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 83 fits into 590 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10590.04819277
Subtract 581 from 590 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 10590.04819277 with a balance of 9e-09.
