We're dividing 538290 by 87 
Our goal is to divide 538290 by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
87 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 53 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
87 goes into 53 0 times with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 53, we end up with 53.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 53 and continue with: 538 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 538 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 522 from 538.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 162 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
87 can be fit into 162 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61.0
Subtracting 87 from 162 leaves us with 75.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 75, then carry on: 759 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 759 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 63.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 618.0
If we take 696 away from 759, we end up with 63.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 63, then repeat: 630 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 630 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6187.0
Subtract 609 from 630 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 210 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6187.2
If we subtract 174 from 210, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 360 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6187.24
Deduct 348 from 360 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 87 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6187.241
Subtract 87 from 120 to get 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 10:
87 can be fit into 330 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6187.2413
Subtracting 261 from 330 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
87 can be fit into 690 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 81.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6187.24137
Deduct 609 from 690 and we're left with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 87 fits into 810 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6187.241379
If we take 783 away from 810, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 87 fits into 270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6187.2413793
Subtract 261 from 270 to 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
87 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6187.24137931
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.

Our division results in 6187.24137931 with a remaining 3e-09.
