397887 divided by 82 
Our goal is to divide 397887 by 82.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 82 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 39 / 82

Step 2:
If we divide 39 by 82, we get 0 and a remainder of 39.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 0 from 39.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 397 / 82

Let's proceed to step 3:
82 can be fit into 397 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 328 from 397 leaves us with 69.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 69 and continue with: 698 / 82

Going ahead to step 4:
82 can be fit into 698 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 656 away from 698, we end up with 42.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 428 / 82

On to step 5:
428 divided by 82 is 5 with a remainder of 18.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 485.0
If we subtract 410 from 428, we get 18.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 187 / 82

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 187 by 82, we get 2 and a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4852.0
If we subtract 164 from 187, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 230 by 82, we get 2 and a remainder of 66.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4852.2
If we subtract 164 from 230, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
660 divided by 82 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4852.28
Subtract 656 from 660 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 82, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4852.28
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
82 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4852.2804
Subtracting 328 from 400 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 720 by 82, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4852.28048
If we subtract 656 from 720, 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 12:
82 goes into 640 7 times with a remainder of 66.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4852.280487
If we subtract 574 from 640, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 13:
660 divided by 82 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4852.2804878
If we take 656 away from 660, 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 14:
82 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: 4852.2804878
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4852.2804878 with a remaining 4e-08.
