152984 divided by 87 
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 152984.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 87 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 87

On to step 2:
15 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 15 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 152 / 87

Step 3:
The number 87 fits into 152 1 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 87 from 152, we get 65.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 659 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
87 goes into 659 7 times with a remainder of 50.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 609 from 659.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 508 / 87

Step 5:
87 goes into 508 5 times with a remainder of 73.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 175.0
Subtracting 435 from 508 leaves us with 73.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 734 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 734 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1758.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 696 from 734.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1758.4
Deduct 348 from 380 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
87 can be fit into 320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1758.43
If we subtract 261 from 320, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
87 goes into 590 6 times with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1758.436
Deduct 522 from 590 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
87 can be fit into 680 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1758.4367
Subtract 609 from 680 to get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 710 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1758.43678
If we take 696 away from 710, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1758.436781
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 87 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
87 can be fit into 530 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1758.4367816
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 522 from 530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
80 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1758.4367816
If we take 0 away from 80, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1758.4367816, with a leftover of 8e-08.
