We're dividing 487456 by 81 
Let's see how many times 81 fits into 487456.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 81, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 81

Going ahead to step 2:
48 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 48 leaves us with 48.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 487 / 81

On to step 3:
When dividing 487 by 81, we get 6 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 486 from 487, we get 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 81

Step 4:
14 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 145 / 81

Advancing to step 5:
The number 81 fits into 145 1 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 601.0
Subtract 81 from 145 to get 64.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 64, then carry on: 646 / 81

Let's proceed to step 6:
81 goes into 646 7 times with a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6017.0
Deduct 567 from 646 and we're left with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
81 can be fit into 790 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6017.9
Deduct 729 from 790 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 610 by 81, we get 7 with a remainder of 43.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6017.97
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 567 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
430 divided by 81 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6017.975
Subtract 405 from 430 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
81 can be fit into 250 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6017.9753
If we subtract 243 from 250, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
70 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6017.9753
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 700 by 81, we get 8 with a remainder of 52.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6017.975308
If we subtract 648 from 700, 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 520 by 81, we get 6 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6017.9753086
Subtract 486 from 520 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 340 by 81, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6017.97530864
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 324 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6017.97530864 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
