Let's divide 87478989 by 492
Let's see how many times 492 fits into 87478989.

On to step 1:
492 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 492

Step 2:
87 divided by 492 is 0 with a remainder of 87.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 87, we get 87.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 87 and continue: 874 / 492

On to step 3:
874 divided by 492 is 1 with a remainder of 382.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 382 after subtracting 492 from 874.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 382, then carry on: 3827 / 492

On to step 4:
The number 492 fits into 3827 7 times, leaving a remainder of 383.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 3444 from 3827 and we're left with 383.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 383 and repeat the process: 3838 / 492

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 3838 by 492, we get 7 with a remainder of 394.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 177.0
Subtract 3444 from 3838 to get 394.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 394, then repeat: 3949 / 492

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 492 fits into 3949 8 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1778.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 3936 from 3949.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 138 / 492

Advancing to step 7:
The number 492 fits into 138 0 times, leaving a remainder of 138.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17780.0
If we subtract 0 from 138, we get 138.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 138, then repeat: 1389 / 492

Advancing to step 8:
1389 divided by 492 is 2 with a remainder of 405.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 177802.0
Subtract 984 from 1389 to get 405.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4050, and continue the process.

Step 9:
492 can be fit into 4050 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 114.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 177802.8
If we take 3936 away from 4050, we end up with 114.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 1140 by 492, we get 2 with a remainder of 156.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 177802.82
Subtract 984 from 1140 to get 156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1560, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
1560 divided by 492 is 3 with a remainder of 84.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 177802.823
If we subtract 1476 from 1560, we 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 12:
492 can be fit into 840 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 348.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 177802.8231
If we take 492 away from 840, we end up with 348.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
3480 divided by 492 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 177802.82317
Deduct 3444 from 3480 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 492 fits into 360 0 times, leaving a remainder of 360.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 177802.82317
Deduct 0 from 360 and we're left with 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 3600 by 492, we get 7 and a remainder of 156.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 177802.8231707
If we subtract 3444 from 3600, we get 156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
1560 divided by 492 is 3 with a remainder of 84.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 177802.82317073
Deduct 1476 from 1560 and we're left with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Our division results in 177802.82317073 with a remaining 8.4e-08.
