We're dividing 1987087 by 241 
We're looking to find how many times 241 goes into 1987087.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 241 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 19 / 241

Going ahead to step 2:
241 can be fit into 19 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 19, we get 19.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 198 / 241

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 241 fits into 198 0 times, leaving a remainder of 198.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 198 leaves us with 198.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 198, then repeat: 1987 / 241

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 1987 by 241, we get 8 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 1928 away from 1987, we end up with 59.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 59 and continue: 590 / 241

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 590 by 241, we get 2 and a remainder of 108.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 82.0
Subtracting 482 from 590 leaves us with 108.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 108 and continue: 1088 / 241

Let's proceed to step 6:
241 goes into 1088 4 times with a remainder of 124.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 824.0
Subtract 964 from 1088 to get 124.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 124 and continue with: 1247 / 241

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 1247 by 241, we get 5 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8245.0
If we take 1205 away from 1247, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
420 divided by 241 is 1 with a remainder of 179.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8245.1
The remainder is 179 after subtracting 241 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1790, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 1790 by 241, we get 7 with a remainder of 103.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8245.17
If we subtract 1687 from 1790, we get 103.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1030, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 241 fits into 1030 4 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8245.174
If we subtract 964 from 1030, 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
241 can be fit into 660 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 178.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8245.1742
Deduct 482 from 660 and we're left with 178.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1780, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
241 can be fit into 1780 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 93.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8245.17427
If we subtract 1687 from 1780, we get 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
241 can be fit into 930 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 207.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8245.174273
Subtract 723 from 930 to get 207.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2070, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 2070 by 241, we get 8 and a remainder of 142.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8245.1742738
The remainder is 142 after subtracting 1928 from 2070.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 1420 by 241, we get 5 and a remainder of 215.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8245.17427385
If we take 1205 away from 1420, we end up with 215.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2150, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 8245.17427385, and the remainder is 2.15e-07.
