Let's divide 801817 by 87
We want to figure out the number of times 801817 can be divided by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 80 / 87

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 80 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 80.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 80 to get 80.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 80 and repeat the process: 801 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 801 by 87, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 783 from 801 to get 18.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 188 / 87

Step 4:
188 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 92.0
If we subtract 174 from 188, we get 14.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 141 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
87 can be fit into 141 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 921.0
Subtract 87 from 141 to get 54.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 54, then repeat: 547 / 87

On to step 6:
87 goes into 547 6 times with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9216.0
If we take 522 away from 547, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 87 fits into 250 2 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9216.2
If we subtract 174 from 250, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 760 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9216.28
Subtract 696 from 760 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 9:
87 goes into 640 7 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9216.287
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 609 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 310 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9216.2873
Subtracting 261 from 310 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
490 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9216.28735
If we subtract 435 from 490, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 12:
87 goes into 550 6 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9216.287356
Subtracting 522 from 550 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 13:
87 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9216.2873563
If we subtract 261 from 280, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 190 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9216.28735632
Subtract 174 from 190 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 9216.28735632 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
