Let's divide 520466 by 87
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 520466.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 87

On to step 2:
52 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 52 leaves us with 52.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 520 / 87

Step 3:
The number 87 fits into 520 5 times, leaving a remainder of 85.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 435 from 520 and we're left with 85.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 85, then carry on: 854 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
87 goes into 854 9 times with a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we subtract 783 from 854, we get 71.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 716 / 87

Advancing to step 5:
716 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 598.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 696 from 716.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 206 / 87

On to step 6:
When dividing 206 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5982.0
Subtract 174 from 206 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 320 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 59.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5982.3
Subtracting 261 from 320 leaves us with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Step 8:
87 goes into 590 6 times with a remainder of 68.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5982.36
If we take 522 away from 590, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
87 goes into 680 7 times with a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5982.367
Subtracting 609 from 680 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 710 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5982.3678
Subtract 696 from 710 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 87, we get 1 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5982.36781
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 87 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
87 goes into 530 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5982.367816
Subtract 522 from 530 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
87 can be fit into 80 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5982.367816
If we take 0 away from 80, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
87 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5982.36781609
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 783 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5982.36781609 with a remaining 1.7e-08.
