Let's divide 240510 by 87
Let's see how many times 87 fits into 240510.

Step 1:
87 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 87

On to step 2:
87 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 24 and we're left with 24.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 240 / 87

Step 3:
87 can be fit into 240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 174 from 240 leaves us with 66.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 66, then repeat: 665 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 665 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 56.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we subtract 609 from 665, we get 56.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 561 / 87

Advancing to step 5:
87 can be fit into 561 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 276.0
Subtracting 522 from 561 leaves us with 39.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 390 / 87

Let's proceed to step 6:
390 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2764.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 348 from 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 420 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2764.4
Deduct 348 from 420 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 720 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2764.48
Subtract 696 from 720 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
87 goes into 240 2 times with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2764.482
If we subtract 174 from 240, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 87 fits into 660 7 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2764.4827
Subtracting 609 from 660 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
87 can be fit into 510 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2764.48275
If we take 435 away from 510, we end up with 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 12:
The number 87 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2764.482758
Subtract 696 from 750 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
87 goes into 540 6 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2764.4827586
Subtracting 522 from 540 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
87 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2764.48275862
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.

The final result is 2764.48275862 with a remainder of 6e-09.
