Let's divide 508606 by 87
Let's see how many times 87 fits into 508606.

On to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 87

On to step 2:
50 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 508 / 87

Step 3:
When dividing 508 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 435 from 508, we get 73.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 736 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 736 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtract 696 from 736 to get 40.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 400 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
87 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 584.0
Deduct 348 from 400 and we're left with 52.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 526 / 87

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 526 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5846.0
If we subtract 522 from 526, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
87 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5846.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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 8:
The number 87 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5846.04
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 348 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 9:
87 goes into 520 5 times with a remainder of 85.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5846.045
Deduct 435 from 520 and we're left with 85.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 850 by 87, we get 9 with a remainder of 67.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5846.0459
Subtract 783 from 850 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 87 fits into 670 7 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5846.04597
Subtract 609 from 670 to get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 87 fits into 610 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5846.045977
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 609 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5846.045977 with a remaining 1e-07.
