Let's divide 978885 by 86
We want to figure out the number of times 978885 can be divided by 86.

Step 1:
If we divide 9 by 86, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 86

Let's proceed to step 2:
86 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 86 from 97 to get 11.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 86

On to step 3:
When dividing 118 by 86, we get 1 with a remainder of 32.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 86 away from 118, we end up with 32.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 328 / 86

On to step 4:
When dividing 328 by 86, we get 3 with a remainder of 70.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 113.0
Deduct 258 from 328 and we're left with 70.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 70 and continue: 708 / 86

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 708 by 86, we get 8 with a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1138.0
Subtract 688 from 708 to get 20.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 205 / 86

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 205 by 86, we get 2 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11382.0
If we take 172 away from 205, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
330 divided by 86 is 3 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11382.3
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 258 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 720 by 86, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11382.38
Subtracting 688 from 720 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
86 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 62.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11382.383
Deduct 258 from 320 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 620 by 86, we get 7 and a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11382.3837
Deduct 602 from 620 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
180 divided by 86 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11382.38372
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 172 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
86 can be fit into 80 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11382.38372
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 0 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
86 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11382.3837209
If we take 774 away from 800, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 260 by 86, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11382.38372093
Subtracting 258 from 260 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11382.38372093 with a remaining 2e-09.
