We look at the division of 16888062 by 987 
We're looking to find how many times 987 goes into 16888062.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 987, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 987

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 16 by 987, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 16, we get 16.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 168 / 987

On to step 3:
If we divide 168 by 987, we get 0 and a remainder of 168.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 168, we get 168.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 168 and continue with: 1688 / 987

Advancing to step 4:
The number 987 fits into 1688 1 times, leaving a remainder of 701.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 701 after subtracting 987 from 1688.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 701 and repeat the process: 7018 / 987

Moving on to step 5:
The number 987 fits into 7018 7 times, leaving a remainder of 109.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtracting 6909 from 7018 leaves us with 109.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 109 and continue: 1090 / 987

Moving on to step 6:
987 goes into 1090 1 times with a remainder of 103.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 171.0
The remainder is 103 after subtracting 987 from 1090.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 103 and continue with: 1036 / 987

On to step 7:
When dividing 1036 by 987, we get 1 with a remainder of 49.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1711.0
Subtract 987 from 1036 to get 49.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 492 / 987

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 492 by 987, we get 0 with a remainder of 492.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17110.0
Subtract 0 from 492 to get 492.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4920, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 987 fits into 4920 4 times, leaving a remainder of 972.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17110.4
The remainder is 972 after subtracting 3948 from 4920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
9720 divided by 987 is 9 with a remainder of 837.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 17110.49
Subtract 8883 from 9720 to get 837.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8370, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 8370 by 987, we get 8 and a remainder of 474.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17110.498
If we take 7896 away from 8370, we end up with 474.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 4740 by 987, we get 4 with a remainder of 792.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17110.4984
If we subtract 3948 from 4740, we get 792.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
987 goes into 7920 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17110.49848
Subtract 7896 from 7920 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
240 divided by 987 is 0 with a remainder of 240.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17110.49848
The remainder is 240 after subtracting 0 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 987 fits into 2400 2 times, leaving a remainder of 426.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17110.4984802
The remainder is 426 after subtracting 1974 from 2400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 4260 by 987, we get 4 and a remainder of 312.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17110.49848024
If we take 3948 away from 4260, we end up with 312.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3120, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 17110.49848024 and a remainder of 3.12e-07.
