Let's divide 265199 by 87
Our goal is to divide 265199 by 87.

Advancing to step 1:
87 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 87

Step 2:
The number 87 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 26 to get 26.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 265 / 87

Step 3:
If we divide 265 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 261 from 265 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 41 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
87 can be fit into 41 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtracting 0 from 41 leaves us with 41.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 419 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
419 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 304.0
If we take 348 away from 419, we end up with 71.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 719 / 87

Let's proceed to step 6:
87 goes into 719 8 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3048.0
Subtract 696 from 719 to 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
87 can be fit into 230 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3048.2
If we subtract 174 from 230, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 560 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3048.26
Deduct 522 from 560 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 380 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3048.264
Subtracting 348 from 380 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 87 fits into 320 3 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3048.2643
Subtract 261 from 320 to 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.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 590 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3048.26436
If we take 522 away from 590, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 680 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3048.264367
Subtracting 609 from 680 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Step 13:
87 goes into 710 8 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3048.2643678
If we subtract 696 from 710, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
87 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3048.26436781
Deduct 87 from 140 and we're left with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3048.26436781 with a balance of 5.3e-08.
