742150 divided by 87 
We want to divide 742150 by 87.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
87 can be fit into 74 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 74 to get 74.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 742 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
87 can be fit into 742 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 696 from 742.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 461 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 461 5 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 85.0
Subtracting 435 from 461 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 265 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
87 can be fit into 265 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 853.0
Deduct 261 from 265 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 40 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8530.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
87 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8530.4
If we subtract 348 from 400, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 87 fits into 520 5 times, leaving a remainder of 85.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8530.45
The remainder is 85 after subtracting 435 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 850, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
87 can be fit into 850 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8530.459
Subtracting 783 from 850 leaves us with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 670 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 61.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8530.4597
Subtract 609 from 670 to get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
87 can be fit into 610 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8530.45977
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 609 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 8530.45977 and a remainder of 1e-06.
