Let's divide 87643278 by 231
Our goal is to divide 87643278 by 231.

Advancing to step 1:
231 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 231

Advancing to step 2:
The number 231 fits into 87 0 times, leaving a remainder of 87.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 87 to get 87.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 87 and continue with: 876 / 231

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 876 by 231, we get 3 with a remainder of 183.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 693 from 876 to get 183.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 183 and repeat the process: 1834 / 231

On to step 4:
When dividing 1834 by 231, we get 7 with a remainder of 217.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37.0
The remainder is 217 after subtracting 1617 from 1834.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 217, then repeat: 2173 / 231

Going ahead to step 5:
2173 divided by 231 is 9 with a remainder of 94.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 379.0
Subtracting 2079 from 2173 leaves us with 94.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 94, then repeat: 942 / 231

Advancing to step 6:
231 can be fit into 942 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3794.0
If we subtract 924 from 942, we get 18.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 187 / 231

On to step 7:
When dividing 187 by 231, we get 0 with a remainder of 187.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37940.0
Deduct 0 from 187 and we're left with 187.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 187, then carry on: 1878 / 231

Going ahead to step 8:
1878 divided by 231 is 8 with a remainder of 30.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 379408.0
Subtract 1848 from 1878 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
231 can be fit into 300 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 379408.1
Subtracting 231 from 300 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
231 goes into 690 2 times with a remainder of 228.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 379408.12
If we take 462 away from 690, we end up with 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
2280 divided by 231 is 9 with a remainder of 201.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 379408.129
Subtracting 2079 from 2280 leaves us with 201.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2010, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
2010 divided by 231 is 8 with a remainder of 162.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 379408.1298
If we take 1848 away from 2010, we end up with 162.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
231 goes into 1620 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 379408.12987
Subtracting 1617 from 1620 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
231 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 379408.12987
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
The number 231 fits into 300 1 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 379408.1298701
Subtracting 231 from 300 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 16:
If we divide 690 by 231, we get 2 and a remainder of 228.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 379408.12987012
The remainder is 228 after subtracting 462 from 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Our division results in 379408.12987012 with a remaining 2.28e-07.
