278026 divided by 87 
Our goal is to divide 278026 by 87.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 87

Step 2:
27 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 278 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
87 can be fit into 278 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 261 from 278 and we're left with 17.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 170 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 170 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 83.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31.0
Deduct 87 from 170 and we're left with 83.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 83 and repeat the process: 832 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 87 fits into 832 9 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 319.0
Deduct 783 from 832 and we're left with 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 496 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
87 can be fit into 496 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3195.0
Subtracting 435 from 496 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
87 goes into 610 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3195.7
Subtract 609 from 610 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 10 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3195.7
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
87 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3195.701
Deduct 87 from 100 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 130 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3195.7011
Subtract 87 from 130 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3195.7011, with a leftover of 0.00043.
