We're dividing 176862 by 87 
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 176862.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 87

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 176 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
87 can be fit into 176 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 174 away from 176, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
87 goes into 28 0 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 286 / 87

Step 5:
87 can be fit into 286 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 203.0
Deduct 261 from 286 and we're left with 25.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 252 / 87

On to step 6:
87 goes into 252 2 times with a remainder of 78.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2032.0
Subtracting 174 from 252 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 780 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 84.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2032.8
If we subtract 696 from 780, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 840 9 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2032.89
If we subtract 783 from 840, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
570 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2032.896
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 522 from 570.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 480 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2032.8965
If we subtract 435 from 480, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 87 fits into 450 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2032.89655
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 435 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2032.89655 with a remaining 1.5e-05.
