We're dividing 87701 by 85 
We want to divide 87701 by 85.

Going ahead to step 1:
85 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 85

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 85 from 87 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 85

Step 3:
The number 85 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 270 / 85

On to step 4:
The number 85 fits into 270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 103.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 255 from 270.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 151 / 85

Step 5:
If we divide 151 by 85, we get 1 and a remainder of 66.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1031.0
Subtract 85 from 151 to get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 6:
660 divided by 85 is 7 with a remainder of 65.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1031.7
If we take 595 away from 660, we end up with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 650 by 85, we get 7 with a remainder of 55.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1031.77
If we subtract 595 from 650, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The final result is 1031.77 with a remainder of 0.055.
