Let's divide 87901899 by 255
We want to divide 87901899 by 255.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 255 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 255

Going ahead to step 2:
255 can be fit into 87 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 87.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 87, we get 87.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 87 and repeat the process: 879 / 255

Advancing to step 3:
879 divided by 255 is 3 with a remainder of 114.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 765 from 879 and we're left with 114.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 114 and repeat the process: 1140 / 255

Advancing to step 4:
The number 255 fits into 1140 4 times, leaving a remainder of 120.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtracting 1020 from 1140 leaves us with 120.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 120, then carry on: 1201 / 255

Step 5:
If we divide 1201 by 255, we get 4 and a remainder of 181.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 344.0
Subtract 1020 from 1201 to get 181.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 181, then repeat: 1818 / 255

Moving on to step 6:
255 goes into 1818 7 times with a remainder of 33.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3447.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 1785 from 1818.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 339 / 255

Let's proceed to step 7:
255 can be fit into 339 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 84.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 34471.0
The remainder is 84 after subtracting 255 from 339.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 84 and continue with: 849 / 255

On to step 8:
When dividing 849 by 255, we get 3 with a remainder of 84.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 344713.0
Subtract 765 from 849 to get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
255 can be fit into 840 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 344713.3
Subtracting 765 from 840 leaves us with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
750 divided by 255 is 2 with a remainder of 240.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 344713.32
If we subtract 510 from 750, we get 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
2400 divided by 255 is 9 with a remainder of 105.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 344713.329
Subtract 2295 from 2400 to get 105.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1050, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 1050 by 255, we get 4 and a remainder of 30.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 344713.3294
If we take 1020 away from 1050, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
255 can be fit into 300 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 344713.32941
Deduct 255 from 300 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
450 divided by 255 is 1 with a remainder of 195.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 344713.329411
Deduct 255 from 450 and we're left with 195.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1950, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 344713.329411 and a remainder of 1.95e-05.
