Let's divide 942787 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 942787 can be divided by 87.

On to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 94 / 87

Step 2:
94 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 87 from 94 to get 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 72 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 72 to get 72.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 727 / 87

On to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 727 8 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 108.0
If we subtract 696 from 727, we get 31.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 318 / 87

Step 5:
The number 87 fits into 318 3 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1083.0
Subtracting 261 from 318 leaves us with 57.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 577 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
The number 87 fits into 577 6 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10836.0
Deduct 522 from 577 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 550 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10836.6
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 280 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10836.63
If we subtract 261 from 280, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 190 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10836.632
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 174 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 10836.6321
If we subtract 87 from 160, we get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Step 11:
730 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 34.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10836.63218
If we subtract 696 from 730, we 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 340 3 times, leaving a remainder of 79.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10836.632183
If we subtract 261 from 340, we get 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
87 can be fit into 790 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10836.6321839
If we take 783 away from 790, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 14:
87 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10836.6321839
If we take 0 away from 70, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

The final result is 10836.6321839 with a remainder of 7e-08.
