18699 ÷ 87 
We want to divide 18699 by 87.

Step 1:
When dividing 1 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 18 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 18, we end up with 18.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 186 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 186 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 174 from 186 to get 12.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 129 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 129 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 87 from 129.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 429 / 87

On to step 5:
87 goes into 429 4 times with a remainder of 81.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 214.0
If we take 348 away from 429, we end up with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
87 goes into 810 9 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 214.9
Subtract 783 from 810 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 214.93
Deduct 261 from 270 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
90 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 214.931
Subtracting 87 from 90 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
87 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 214.931
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 300 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 39.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 214.93103
Subtract 261 from 300 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 11:
87 goes into 390 4 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 214.931034
Subtract 348 from 390 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
420 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 72.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 214.9310344
If we subtract 348 from 420, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 214.9310344, and the remainder is 7.2e-07.
