297117 divided by 87 
Our goal is to divide 297117 by 87.

Step 1:
87 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
87 goes into 29 0 times with a remainder of 29.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 0 from 29.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 297 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 297 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 261 from 297 and we're left with 36.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 361 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 361 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 34.0
Deduct 348 from 361 and we're left with 13.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 131 / 87

Step 5:
If we divide 131 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 341.0
Deduct 87 from 131 and we're left with 44.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 447 / 87

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 447 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3415.0
Subtracting 435 from 447 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
120 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3415.1
Subtract 87 from 120 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 330 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 69.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3415.13
Deduct 261 from 330 and we're left with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 690 7 times, leaving a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3415.137
The remainder is 81 after subtracting 609 from 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
87 goes into 810 9 times with a remainder of 27.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3415.1379
If we take 783 away from 810, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
87 can be fit into 270 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3415.13793
Subtracting 261 from 270 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 90 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3415.137931
Subtract 87 from 90 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 30 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3415.137931
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
87 goes into 300 3 times with a remainder of 39.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3415.13793103
If we take 261 away from 300, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3415.13793103 with a remaining 3.9e-08.
