We divide 831701 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 831701 can be divided by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
87 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 83 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 83 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 83.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 83 and we're left with 83.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 83 and repeat the process: 831 / 87

Step 3:
87 can be fit into 831 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 783 from 831 to get 48.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 487 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 487 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 95.0
Deduct 435 from 487 and we're left with 52.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 520 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
87 can be fit into 520 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 85.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 955.0
If we take 435 away from 520, we end up with 85.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 85 and continue with: 851 / 87

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 851 by 87, we get 9 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9559.0
If we subtract 783 from 851, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 7:
87 goes into 680 7 times with a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9559.7
If we subtract 609 from 680, we get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
87 can be fit into 710 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9559.78
If we subtract 696 from 710, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 140 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9559.781
If we take 87 away from 140, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Step 10:
87 goes into 530 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9559.7816
Subtract 522 from 530 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
87 can be fit into 80 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9559.7816
Deduct 0 from 80 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9559.781609
If we take 783 away from 800, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 87 fits into 170 1 times, leaving a remainder of 83.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9559.7816091
The remainder is 83 after subtracting 87 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
87 can be fit into 830 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9559.78160919
Deduct 783 from 830 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 9559.78160919 with a balance of 4.7e-08.
