We're dividing 687335 by 531 
Let's see how many times 531 fits into 687335.

Going ahead to step 1:
6 divided by 531 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 68 / 531

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 68 by 531, we get 0 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 68, we get 68.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 68 and repeat the process: 687 / 531

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 531 fits into 687 1 times, leaving a remainder of 156.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 156 after subtracting 531 from 687.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 156 and continue: 1563 / 531

Step 4:
531 goes into 1563 2 times with a remainder of 501.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 501 after subtracting 1062 from 1563.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 501, then repeat: 5013 / 531

Let's proceed to step 5:
5013 divided by 531 is 9 with a remainder of 234.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 129.0
The remainder is 234 after subtracting 4779 from 5013.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 234, then repeat: 2345 / 531

Let's proceed to step 6:
531 can be fit into 2345 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 221.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1294.0
The remainder is 221 after subtracting 2124 from 2345.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2210, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
531 can be fit into 2210 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 86.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1294.4
Subtracting 2124 from 2210 leaves us with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
860 divided by 531 is 1 with a remainder of 329.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1294.41
Subtracting 531 from 860 leaves us with 329.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3290, and continue the process.

Step 9:
3290 divided by 531 is 6 with a remainder of 104.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1294.416
Subtract 3186 from 3290 to get 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 1040 by 531, we get 1 with a remainder of 509.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1294.4161
Subtracting 531 from 1040 leaves us with 509.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5090, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 5090 by 531, we get 9 and a remainder of 311.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1294.41619
Subtract 4779 from 5090 to get 311.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 531 fits into 3110 5 times, leaving a remainder of 455.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1294.416195
Subtracting 2655 from 3110 leaves us with 455.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 531 fits into 4550 8 times, leaving a remainder of 302.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1294.4161958
Subtract 4248 from 4550 to get 302.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3020, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 3020 by 531, we get 5 with a remainder of 365.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1294.41619585
Subtracting 2655 from 3020 leaves us with 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1294.41619585 with a balance of 3.65e-07.
