Let's divide 971341 by 87
Our goal is to divide 971341 by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
9 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 87

Step 2:
87 can be fit into 97 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 87 from 97.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 101 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
The number 87 fits into 101 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 87 from 101, we get 14.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 143 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 143 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 111.0
Subtract 87 from 143 to get 56.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 564 / 87

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 564 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 42.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1116.0
Subtracting 522 from 564 leaves us with 42.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 421 / 87

On to step 6:
421 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 73.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11164.0
If we subtract 348 from 421, we get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 87 fits into 730 8 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11164.8
If we take 696 away from 730, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 11164.83
The remainder is 79 after subtracting 261 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 790 by 87, we get 9 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11164.839
If we subtract 783 from 790, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 10:
70 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 70.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11164.839
Deduct 0 from 70 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 700 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11164.83908
Deduct 696 from 700 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
40 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11164.83908
Subtract 0 from 40 to 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.

On to step 13:
The number 87 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11164.8390804
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 348 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
87 goes into 520 5 times with a remainder of 85.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11164.83908045
If we take 435 away from 520, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 11164.83908045, and the remainder is 8.5e-08.
