Let's divide 87541807 by 255
Our goal is to divide 87541807 by 255.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 255 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 255

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 255, we get 0 with a remainder of 87.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 87, we get 87.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 87, then carry on: 875 / 255

Going ahead to step 3:
255 goes into 875 3 times with a remainder of 110.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 765 from 875 to get 110.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 110, then repeat: 1104 / 255

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 1104 by 255, we get 4 with a remainder of 84.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 34.0
Deduct 1020 from 1104 and we're left with 84.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 84 and continue: 841 / 255

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 255 fits into 841 3 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 343.0
Deduct 765 from 841 and we're left with 76.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 76, then carry on: 768 / 255

On to step 6:
When dividing 768 by 255, we get 3 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3433.0
If we subtract 765 from 768, we get 3.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 30 / 255

On to step 7:
The number 255 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34330.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 307 / 255

Step 8:
If we divide 307 by 255, we get 1 and a remainder of 52.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 343301.0
Subtract 255 from 307 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.

Moving on to step 9:
255 can be fit into 520 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 343301.2
Subtracting 510 from 520 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
255 can be fit into 100 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 100.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 343301.2
Subtracting 0 from 100 leaves us with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 1000 by 255, we get 3 with a remainder of 235.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 343301.203
If we subtract 765 from 1000, we get 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 255 fits into 2350 9 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 343301.2039
If we subtract 2295 from 2350, 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 550 by 255, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 343301.20392
Subtract 510 from 550 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 255 fits into 400 1 times, leaving a remainder of 145.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 343301.203921
Subtracting 255 from 400 leaves us with 145.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
1450 divided by 255 is 5 with a remainder of 175.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 343301.2039215
The remainder is 175 after subtracting 1275 from 1450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1750, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
255 can be fit into 1750 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 220.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 343301.20392156
The remainder is 220 after subtracting 1530 from 1750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 343301.20392156, with a leftover of 2.2e-07.
