We divide 448971 by 87
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 448971.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 44 / 87

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 44 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 44 and we're left with 44.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 448 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
87 can be fit into 448 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 435 from 448 to get 13.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 139 / 87

Step 4:
87 goes into 139 1 times with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
If we subtract 87 from 139, we get 52.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 527 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
87 goes into 527 6 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 516.0
Deduct 522 from 527 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 51 / 87

Step 6:
51 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 51.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5160.0
Subtracting 0 from 51 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 510 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5160.5
If we subtract 435 from 510, we get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
87 goes into 750 8 times with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5160.58
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 696 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 540 6 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5160.586
If we subtract 522 from 540, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
180 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5160.5862
Subtract 174 from 180 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
60 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5160.5862
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
87 can be fit into 600 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5160.586206
If we subtract 522 from 600, we get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
87 goes into 780 8 times with a remainder of 84.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5160.5862068
The remainder is 84 after subtracting 696 from 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
87 can be fit into 840 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5160.58620689
Deduct 783 from 840 and we're left 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.

The final result is 5160.58620689 with a remainder of 5.7e-08.
