764473 ÷ 87 
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 764473.

Going ahead to step 1:
87 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 76 / 87

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 76 0 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 0 from 76.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 76, then repeat: 764 / 87

Step 3:
The number 87 fits into 764 8 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 696 away from 764, we end up with 68.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 68 and continue: 684 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 684 7 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 87.0
Subtract 609 from 684 to get 75.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 75 and continue: 757 / 87

Advancing to step 5:
87 goes into 757 8 times with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 878.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 696 from 757.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 613 / 87

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 87 fits into 613 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8787.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 609 from 613.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
40 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8787.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 400 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8787.04
Subtract 348 from 400 to 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 520 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 85.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8787.045
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
87 goes into 850 9 times with a remainder of 67.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8787.0459
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.

On to step 11:
If we divide 670 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 61.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8787.04597
If we subtract 609 from 670, we 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.

On to step 12:
When dividing 610 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8787.045977
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 outcome is 8787.045977, with a leftover of 1e-07.
