We divide 761261 by 87
Our goal is to divide 761261 by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 76 / 87

On to step 2:
87 goes into 76 0 times with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 76 to get 76.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 76, then repeat: 761 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
761 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 65.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 696 from 761 leaves us with 65.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 65 and continue with: 652 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
87 goes into 652 7 times with a remainder of 43.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 87.0
Subtract 609 from 652 to get 43.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 436 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 436 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 1.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 875.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 435 from 436.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 87

On to step 6:
If we divide 11 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8750.0
If we subtract 0 from 11, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
110 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8750.1
Subtract 87 from 110 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 230 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8750.12
Deduct 174 from 230 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
87 goes into 560 6 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8750.126
Subtracting 522 from 560 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
87 goes into 380 4 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8750.1264
If we take 348 away from 380, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 11:
320 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8750.12643
Deduct 261 from 320 and we're left with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 590 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 68.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8750.126436
Subtracting 522 from 590 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
87 goes into 680 7 times with a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8750.1264367
Subtract 609 from 680 to get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
87 can be fit into 710 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8750.12643678
Subtracting 696 from 710 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8750.12643678 with a balance of 1.4e-08.
