We're dividing 848731 by 87 
Our goal is to divide 848731 by 87.

Advancing to step 1:
8 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 84 / 87

Going ahead to step 2:
87 can be fit into 84 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 84.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 84 after subtracting 0 from 84.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 84 and repeat the process: 848 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
87 goes into 848 9 times with a remainder of 65.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 783 away from 848, we end up with 65.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 657 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
87 goes into 657 7 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 97.0
If we take 609 away from 657, we end up with 48.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 483 / 87

Advancing to step 5:
87 goes into 483 5 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 975.0
If we subtract 435 from 483, we get 48.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 481 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 481 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 46.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9755.0
If we subtract 435 from 481, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 460 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9755.5
Subtract 435 from 460 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 250 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 76.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9755.52
Subtract 174 from 250 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 760 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9755.528
Subtracting 696 from 760 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 87 fits into 640 7 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9755.5287
Subtract 609 from 640 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
87 can be fit into 310 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9755.52873
Subtract 261 from 310 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 490 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9755.528735
If we take 435 away from 490, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 87 fits into 550 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9755.5287356
Deduct 522 from 550 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
280 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9755.52873563
Subtracting 261 from 280 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

The final result is 9755.52873563 with a remainder of 1.9e-08.
