Let's divide 553496 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 553496 can be divided by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
5 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 55 0 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 55 and we're left with 55.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 553 / 87

On to step 3:
If we divide 553 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 522 from 553 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 314 / 87

On to step 4:
When dividing 314 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 53.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 261 from 314, we get 53.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 539 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 539 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 636.0
Deduct 522 from 539 and we're left with 17.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 176 / 87

Step 6:
176 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6362.0
Subtract 174 from 176 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 7:
20 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6362.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
87 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6362.02
Subtracting 174 from 200 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
87 can be fit into 260 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 86.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6362.022
The remainder is 86 after subtracting 174 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

The final result is 6362.022 with a remainder of 0.0086.
