We're dividing 987482 by 83 
We're looking to find how many times 83 goes into 987482.

On to step 1:
83 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 83

On to step 2:
The number 83 fits into 98 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 83 from 98 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 157 / 83

On to step 3:
If we divide 157 by 83, we get 1 and a remainder of 74.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 83 from 157.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 744 / 83

Going ahead to step 4:
83 can be fit into 744 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118.0
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 664 from 744.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 80, then repeat: 808 / 83

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 808 by 83, we get 9 and a remainder of 61.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1189.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 747 from 808.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 612 / 83

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 83 fits into 612 7 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11897.0
If we subtract 581 from 612, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 310 by 83, we get 3 with a remainder of 61.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11897.3
Deduct 249 from 310 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 610 by 83, we get 7 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11897.37
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 581 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 83 fits into 290 3 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11897.373
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 249 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
83 goes into 410 4 times with a remainder of 78.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11897.3734
If we subtract 332 from 410, we get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 780 by 83, we get 9 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11897.37349
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 747 from 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 330 by 83, we get 3 with a remainder of 81.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11897.373493
If we subtract 249 from 330, we get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 810 by 83, we get 9 and a remainder of 63.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11897.3734939
Deduct 747 from 810 and we're left with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
630 divided by 83 is 7 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11897.37349397
Subtracting 581 from 630 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 11897.37349397 with a balance of 4.9e-08.
