We look at the division of 846493 by 87 
We want to divide 846493 by 87.

Step 1:
When dividing 8 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 84 / 87

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 84 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 84.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 84 to get 84.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 84 and continue: 846 / 87

Step 3:
The number 87 fits into 846 9 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 783 from 846.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 63, then carry on: 634 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
87 goes into 634 7 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 97.0
Subtracting 609 from 634 leaves us with 25.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 259 / 87

Step 5:
87 goes into 259 2 times with a remainder of 85.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 972.0
The remainder is 85 after subtracting 174 from 259.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 85 and continue: 853 / 87

On to step 6:
853 divided by 87 is 9 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9729.0
Deduct 783 from 853 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
87 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 9729.8
If we take 696 away from 700, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9729.8
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 52.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9729.804
Subtract 348 from 400 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
87 can be fit into 520 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 85.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9729.8045
If we take 435 away from 520, we end up with 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 850 by 87, we get 9 and a remainder of 67.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9729.80459
Subtracting 783 from 850 leaves us with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
87 can be fit into 670 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9729.804597
Subtracting 609 from 670 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
87 can be fit into 610 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9729.8045977
Subtracting 609 from 610 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 9729.8045977 with a remaining 1e-08.
