We divide 299712 by 87
Our goal is to divide 299712 by 87.

On to step 1:
87 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 87

On to step 2:
29 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 29 and we're left with 29.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 299 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
299 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 38.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 261 from 299 and we're left with 38.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 387 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 387 4 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtracting 348 from 387 leaves us with 39.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 391 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 391 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 344.0
If we subtract 348 from 391, we get 43.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 432 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 432 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 84.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3444.0
Subtracting 348 from 432 leaves us with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
87 goes into 840 9 times with a remainder of 57.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3444.9
If we take 783 away from 840, we end up with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 570 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3444.96
Subtract 522 from 570 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
87 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3444.965
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 435 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
450 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3444.9655
If we subtract 435 from 450, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3444.9655, with a leftover of 0.00015.
