Let's divide 50678 by 87
We want to divide 50678 by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
87 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our 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

Advancing to step 2:
87 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 506 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 506 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 71.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 435 from 506 to get 71.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 717 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
717 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtracting 696 from 717 leaves us with 21.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 218 / 87

Step 5:
When dividing 218 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 582.0
Deduct 174 from 218 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
87 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 582.5
Deduct 435 from 440 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
50 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 582.5
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 8:
87 can be fit into 500 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 582.505
Deduct 435 from 500 and we're left with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 650 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 582.5057
Deduct 609 from 650 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 410 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 62.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 582.50574
Subtracting 348 from 410 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 620 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 582.505747
If we take 609 away from 620, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
110 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 582.5057471
Subtracting 87 from 110 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
87 goes into 230 2 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 582.50574712
If we subtract 174 from 230, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 582.50574712 with a balance of 5.6e-08.
