Let's divide 48249 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 48249 can be divided by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 482 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
87 can be fit into 482 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 435 from 482 and we're left with 47.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 474 / 87

Step 4:
If we divide 474 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we take 435 away from 474, we end up with 39.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 399 / 87

On to step 5:
When dividing 399 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 51.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 554.0
Subtracting 348 from 399 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
87 goes into 510 5 times with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 554.5
Deduct 435 from 510 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Step 7:
750 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 554.58
If we subtract 696 from 750, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 540 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 554.586
If we subtract 522 from 540, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 180 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 554.5862
If we take 174 away from 180, 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.

Step 10:
When dividing 60 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 554.5862
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 600 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 78.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 554.586206
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 522 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 780 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 84.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 554.5862068
Subtract 696 from 780 to get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 840 by 87, we get 9 and a remainder of 57.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 554.58620689
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 783 from 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 554.58620689, and the remainder is 5.7e-08.
