We look at the division of 257585 by 87 
We want to figure out the number of times 257585 can be divided by 87.

Let's proceed to step 1:
87 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 87

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 257 / 87

Step 3:
87 can be fit into 257 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 83 after subtracting 174 from 257.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 83 and continue with: 835 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 835 9 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 783 from 835 and we're left with 52.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 528 / 87

Step 5:
When dividing 528 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 296.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 522 from 528.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 65 / 87

On to step 6:
If we divide 65 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 65.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2960.0
If we subtract 0 from 65, we get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Step 7:
87 goes into 650 7 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2960.7
If we subtract 609 from 650, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
87 goes into 410 4 times with a remainder of 62.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2960.74
Subtract 348 from 410 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 620 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2960.747
Subtract 609 from 620 to get 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 10:
87 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2960.7471
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 87 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
87 goes into 230 2 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2960.74712
Subtracting 174 from 230 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
87 goes into 560 6 times with a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2960.747126
Deduct 522 from 560 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 13:
380 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2960.7471264
If we subtract 348 from 380, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
87 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 59.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2960.74712643
If we subtract 261 from 320, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2960.74712643 with a balance of 5.9e-08.
