Let's divide 511656 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 511656 can be divided by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
87 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 51 / 87

Step 2:
51 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 51, we get 51.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 51 and repeat the process: 511 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
87 goes into 511 5 times with a remainder of 76.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 435 from 511 leaves us with 76.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 76, then carry on: 766 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 766 8 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we take 696 away from 766, we end up with 70.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 70, then repeat: 705 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
705 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 9.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 588.0
Subtracting 696 from 705 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 96 / 87

Step 6:
87 goes into 96 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5881.0
If we subtract 87 from 96, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 90 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5881.1
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.

On to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5881.1
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 300 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5881.103
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 261 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
390 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5881.1034
Subtracting 348 from 390 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 420 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 72.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5881.10344
If we take 348 away from 420, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 5881.10344 with a balance of 7.2e-05.
