We divide 468945 by 87
We want to divide 468945 by 87.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 87 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 87

On to step 2:
If we divide 46 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 46 to get 46.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 46 and continue: 468 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
468 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 33.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 435 away from 468, we end up with 33.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 339 / 87

Step 4:
87 goes into 339 3 times with a remainder of 78.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
If we take 261 away from 339, we end up with 78.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 78 and repeat the process: 784 / 87

Step 5:
The number 87 fits into 784 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 539.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 783 from 784.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 87

Let's proceed to step 6:
87 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5390.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 0 from 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 150 1 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5390.1
Subtract 87 from 150 to get 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 8:
If we divide 630 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5390.17
If we subtract 609 from 630, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5390.172
If we take 174 away from 210, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
87 can be fit into 360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5390.1724
If we subtract 348 from 360, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
120 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5390.17241
Subtract 87 from 120 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 330 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 69.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5390.172413
Subtract 261 from 330 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 13:
87 goes into 690 7 times with a remainder of 81.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5390.1724137
Subtract 609 from 690 to 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.

Advancing to step 14:
87 can be fit into 810 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5390.17241379
Subtract 783 from 810 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5390.17241379, and the remainder is 2.7e-08.
