We look at the division of 487744 by 84 
We want to figure out the number of times 487744 can be divided by 84.

On to step 1:
84 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 84

Going ahead to step 2:
48 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 48 leaves us with 48.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 487 / 84

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 487 by 84, we get 5 and a remainder of 67.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 420 from 487 leaves us with 67.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 67 and continue with: 677 / 84

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 84 fits into 677 8 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 672 from 677.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 54 / 84

On to step 5:
54 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 54.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 580.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 0 from 54.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 544 / 84

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 544 by 84, we get 6 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5806.0
If we subtract 504 from 544, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 84 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5806.4
If we take 336 away from 400, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
84 goes into 640 7 times with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5806.47
If we subtract 588 from 640, we 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:
520 divided by 84 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5806.476
Subtract 504 from 520 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
84 can be fit into 160 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5806.4761
If we take 84 away from 160, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
84 can be fit into 760 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5806.47619
If we take 756 away from 760, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 40 by 84, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5806.47619
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 84 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5806.4761904
If we subtract 336 from 400, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
84 goes into 640 7 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5806.47619047
Subtract 588 from 640 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.

The final result is 5806.47619047 with a remainder of 5.2e-08.
