We're dividing 147235 by 87 
We want to figure out the number of times 147235 can be divided by 87.

Step 1:
The number 87 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 147 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
87 goes into 147 1 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 87 away from 147, we end up with 60.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 60, then carry on: 602 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
87 goes into 602 6 times with a remainder of 80.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 522 from 602.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 80 and continue: 803 / 87

On to step 5:
The number 87 fits into 803 9 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 169.0
If we take 783 away from 803, we end up with 20.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 205 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
205 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 31.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1692.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 174 from 205.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 310 3 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1692.3
Subtracting 261 from 310 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 490 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1692.35
Deduct 435 from 490 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
550 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1692.356
Deduct 522 from 550 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
87 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1692.3563
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 261 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
190 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1692.35632
If we subtract 174 from 190, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 73.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1692.356321
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 87 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Step 13:
87 goes into 730 8 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1692.3563218
Subtract 696 from 730 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
87 goes into 340 3 times with a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1692.35632183
If we take 261 away from 340, we end up with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1692.35632183 and a remainder of 7.9e-08.
