We look at the division of 70987240 by 487 
We want to divide 70987240 by 487.

Let's proceed to step 1:
487 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 70 / 487

Step 2:
487 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 70, then repeat: 709 / 487

Let's proceed to step 3:
709 divided by 487 is 1 with a remainder of 222.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 222 after subtracting 487 from 709.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 222, then repeat: 2228 / 487

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 2228 by 487, we get 4 with a remainder of 280.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 1948 away from 2228, we end up with 280.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 280 and continue with: 2807 / 487

On to step 5:
The number 487 fits into 2807 5 times, leaving a remainder of 372.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 145.0
If we subtract 2435 from 2807, we get 372.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 372, then repeat: 3722 / 487

Advancing to step 6:
487 goes into 3722 7 times with a remainder of 313.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1457.0
Subtract 3409 from 3722 to get 313.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 313 and continue: 3134 / 487

Step 7:
The number 487 fits into 3134 6 times, leaving a remainder of 212.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 14576.0
If we take 2922 away from 3134, we end up with 212.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 212, then carry on: 2120 / 487

Step 8:
When dividing 2120 by 487, we get 4 with a remainder of 172.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145764.0
The remainder is 172 after subtracting 1948 from 2120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
487 can be fit into 1720 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 259.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145764.3
If we take 1461 away from 1720, we end up with 259.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2590, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 487 fits into 2590 5 times, leaving a remainder of 155.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 145764.35
If we take 2435 away from 2590, we end up with 155.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 487 fits into 1550 3 times, leaving a remainder of 89.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 145764.353
The remainder is 89 after subtracting 1461 from 1550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 487 fits into 890 1 times, leaving a remainder of 403.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145764.3531
Deduct 487 from 890 and we're left with 403.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4030, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 487 fits into 4030 8 times, leaving a remainder of 134.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 145764.35318
The remainder is 134 after subtracting 3896 from 4030.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 487 fits into 1340 2 times, leaving a remainder of 366.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145764.353182
Deduct 974 from 1340 and we're left with 366.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 3660 by 487, we get 7 with a remainder of 251.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145764.3531827
Subtract 3409 from 3660 to get 251.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
The number 487 fits into 2510 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 145764.35318275
Subtracting 2435 from 2510 leaves us with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 145764.35318275 and a remainder of 7.5e-08.
