270681 divided by 87 
We want to divide 270681 by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 87

On to step 2:
87 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 270 / 87

Step 3:
87 goes into 270 3 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 261 from 270, we get 9.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 96 / 87

On to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 96 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtract 87 from 96 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 87

On to step 5:
87 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 311.0
Subtracting 87 from 98 leaves us with 11.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 111 / 87

On to step 6:
87 goes into 111 1 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3111.0
If we subtract 87 from 111, we 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.

Step 7:
If we divide 240 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3111.2
Deduct 174 from 240 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 660 7 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3111.27
If we subtract 609 from 660, we get 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 9:
The number 87 fits into 510 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3111.275
Subtracting 435 from 510 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
When dividing 750 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 54.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3111.2758
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 696 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 540 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3111.27586
Deduct 522 from 540 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 180 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3111.275862
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 174 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
87 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3111.275862
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
600 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 78.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3111.27586206
Subtracting 522 from 600 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3111.27586206, with a leftover of 7.8e-08.
