We look at the division of 1987403 by 87 
We want to figure out the number of times 1987403 can be divided by 87.

Let's proceed to step 1:
87 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 87

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 19 0 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 19, we end up with 19.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 198 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 198 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 174 from 198 and we're left with 24.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 247 / 87

On to step 4:
87 can be fit into 247 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we take 174 away from 247, we end up with 73.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 73 and continue: 734 / 87

Step 5:
87 goes into 734 8 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 228.0
If we take 696 away from 734, we end up with 38.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 380 / 87

Step 6:
If we divide 380 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2284.0
Deduct 348 from 380 and we're left with 32.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 323 / 87

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 323 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 62.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22843.0
Subtracting 261 from 323 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 620 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22843.7
Deduct 609 from 620 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
110 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22843.71
Subtract 87 from 110 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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 230 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22843.712
Deduct 174 from 230 and we're left with 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 11:
560 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22843.7126
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22843.71264
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 348 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 320 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 59.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22843.712643
Subtracting 261 from 320 leaves us with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 590 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 68.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22843.7126436
Subtract 522 from 590 to 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.

Moving on to step 15:
87 can be fit into 680 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22843.71264367
If we take 609 away from 680, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 22843.71264367, with a leftover of 7.1e-08.
