We look at the division of 873116 by 28 
We're looking to find how many times 28 goes into 873116.

Let's proceed to step 1:
8 divided by 28 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 28

On to step 2:
87 divided by 28 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 84 from 87 and we're left with 3.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 33 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
33 divided by 28 is 1 with a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we take 28 away from 33, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 51 / 28

On to step 4:
When dividing 51 by 28, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 311.0
If we take 28 away from 51, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 231 / 28

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 231 by 28, we get 8 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3118.0
Subtract 224 from 231 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 76 / 28

Let's proceed to step 6:
28 goes into 76 2 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31182.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 56 from 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
28 goes into 200 7 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 31182.7
Deduct 196 from 200 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 28 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31182.71
Subtracting 28 from 40 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 120 by 28, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31182.714
Deduct 112 from 120 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 28 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31182.7142
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 240 by 28, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31182.71428
Subtracting 224 from 240 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 28, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31182.714285
Deduct 140 from 160 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 28 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31182.7142857
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 196 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
28 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31182.71428571
Subtract 28 from 40 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Our division results in 31182.71428571 with a remaining 1.2e-08.
