We divide 482506 by 87
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 482506.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 87

Let's proceed to step 2:
87 goes into 48 0 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 482 / 87

On to step 3:
87 goes into 482 5 times with a remainder of 47.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 435 from 482 leaves us with 47.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 475 / 87

On to step 4:
475 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55.0
Subtracting 435 from 475 leaves us with 40.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 400 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
400 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 554.0
If we subtract 348 from 400, we get 52.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 526 / 87

Step 6:
The number 87 fits into 526 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5546.0
If we take 522 away from 526, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
40 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5546.0
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 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 8:
400 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5546.04
Subtracting 348 from 400 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
520 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 85.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5546.045
If we subtract 435 from 520, we get 85.
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 10:
850 divided by 87 is 9 with a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5546.0459
If we subtract 783 from 850, we get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
87 goes into 670 7 times with a remainder of 61.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5546.04597
Deduct 609 from 670 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 610 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5546.045977
Subtracting 609 from 610 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5546.045977 with a remaining 1e-07.
