We look at the division of 287227 by 87 
We want to divide 287227 by 87.

On to step 1:
87 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 87

On to step 2:
87 goes into 28 0 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 28.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 287 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 287 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 261 from 287 and we're left with 26.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 262 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
87 can be fit into 262 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 33.0
Subtract 261 from 262 to get 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
87 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 330.0
If we subtract 0 from 12, we get 12.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 127 / 87

On to step 6:
87 can be fit into 127 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3301.0
If we take 87 away from 127, 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.

Step 7:
The number 87 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3301.4
If we subtract 348 from 400, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 520 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 85.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3301.45
If we subtract 435 from 520, we get 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
87 can be fit into 850 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3301.459
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 783 from 850.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
87 goes into 670 7 times with a remainder of 61.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3301.4597
Subtract 609 from 670 to get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 610 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3301.45977
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 609 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The final result is 3301.45977 with a remainder of 1e-06.
