Let's divide 887469 by 7
Our goal is to divide 887469 by 7.

Advancing to step 1:
7 can be fit into 8 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 7 from 8 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 7

Moving on to step 2:
The number 7 fits into 18 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 14 from 18 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 47 / 7

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 47 by 7, we get 6 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 126.0
Subtract 42 from 47 to get 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 7

Let's proceed to step 4:
7 can be fit into 54 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1267.0
Deduct 49 from 54 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 56 / 7

Moving on to step 5:
7 can be fit into 56 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12678.0
Subtracting 56 from 56 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 7

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 9 by 7, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 126781.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 7 from 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 7:
7 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 126781.2
If we take 14 away from 20, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 60 by 7, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 126781.28
Subtracting 56 from 60 leaves us 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.

On to step 9:
7 goes into 40 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 126781.285
Subtract 35 from 40 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
7 can be fit into 50 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 126781.2857
Deduct 49 from 50 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
10 divided by 7 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 126781.28571
If we subtract 7 from 10, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 30 by 7, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 126781.285714
If we subtract 28 from 30, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
7 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 126781.2857142
Subtract 14 from 20 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
7 goes into 60 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 126781.28571428
Subtract 56 from 60 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 126781.28571428 and a remainder of 4e-09.
