Let's divide 24722947 by 987
We want to divide 24722947 by 987.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 987, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 987

On to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 987, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 247 / 987

Step 3:
247 divided by 987 is 0 with a remainder of 247.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 247, we get 247.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 247, then repeat: 2472 / 987

Going ahead to step 4:
987 can be fit into 2472 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 498.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 1974 away from 2472, we end up with 498.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 498, then repeat: 4982 / 987

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 4982 by 987, we get 5 with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 4935 from 4982.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 479 / 987

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 479 by 987, we get 0 with a remainder of 479.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 250.0
If we take 0 away from 479, we end up with 479.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 479 and continue with: 4794 / 987

Let's proceed to step 7:
4794 divided by 987 is 4 with a remainder of 846.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2504.0
Subtracting 3948 from 4794 leaves us with 846.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 846, then repeat: 8467 / 987

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 8467 by 987, we get 8 with a remainder of 571.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25048.0
The remainder is 571 after subtracting 7896 from 8467.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5710, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 987 fits into 5710 5 times, leaving a remainder of 775.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25048.5
The remainder is 775 after subtracting 4935 from 5710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7750, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
7750 divided by 987 is 7 with a remainder of 841.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 25048.57
Deduct 6909 from 7750 and we're left with 841.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8410, and continue the process.

Step 11:
987 goes into 8410 8 times with a remainder of 514.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25048.578
If we subtract 7896 from 8410, we get 514.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 5140 by 987, we get 5 with a remainder of 205.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25048.5785
Deduct 4935 from 5140 and we're left with 205.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2050, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 987 fits into 2050 2 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25048.57852
If we subtract 1974 from 2050, 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.

On to step 14:
760 divided by 987 is 0 with a remainder of 760.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25048.57852
If we subtract 0 from 760, we get 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
If we divide 7600 by 987, we get 7 and a remainder of 691.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25048.5785207
Deduct 6909 from 7600 and we're left with 691.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6910, and continue the process.

Step 16:
987 can be fit into 6910 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25048.57852077
If we take 6909 away from 6910, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 25048.57852077, and the remainder is 1e-09.
