We divide 876431 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 876431 can be divided by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 87

On to step 2:
87 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 87 from 87, we get 0.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 6 / 87

Step 3:
6 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 64 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 64 0 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100.0
Subtract 0 from 64 to get 64.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 64 and continue with: 643 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 643 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1007.0
If we subtract 609 from 643, we get 34.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 341 / 87

Step 6:
341 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 80.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10073.0
Subtract 261 from 341 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10073.9
Subtracting 783 from 800 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 170 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 83.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10073.91
Deduct 87 from 170 and we're left with 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 830 by 87, we get 9 and a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10073.919
If we take 783 away from 830, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
87 goes into 470 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10073.9195
If we take 435 away from 470, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
87 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10073.91954
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 348 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10073.91954
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 200 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10073.9195402
Subtracting 174 from 200 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 260 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 86.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10073.91954022
If we subtract 174 from 260, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 10073.91954022 with a balance of 8.6e-08.
