475843 divided by 87 
Let's see how many times 87 fits into 475843.

Going ahead 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.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 87

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 47 0 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 47, we end up with 47.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 475 / 87

Step 3:
87 goes into 475 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 435 from 475 to get 40.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 408 / 87

On to step 4:
87 goes into 408 4 times with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54.0
Deduct 348 from 408 and we're left with 60.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 604 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 604 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 82.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 546.0
The remainder is 82 after subtracting 522 from 604.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 82, then carry on: 823 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 823 by 87, we get 9 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5469.0
If we take 783 away from 823, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
87 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5469.4
Deduct 348 from 400 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
520 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 85.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5469.45
Subtracting 435 from 520 leaves us with 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 850 by 87, we get 9 with a remainder of 67.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5469.459
Deduct 783 from 850 and we're left with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 670 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5469.4597
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 609 from 670.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
87 can be fit into 610 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5469.45977
Subtract 609 from 610 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5469.45977 with a remaining 1e-06.
