We look at the division of 901458 by 87 
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 901458.

On to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 90 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 90 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 87 from 90 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
31 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 314 / 87

Step 4:
87 goes into 314 3 times with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 103.0
Subtracting 261 from 314 leaves us with 53.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 535 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
87 goes into 535 6 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1036.0
Subtracting 522 from 535 leaves us with 13.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 138 / 87

On to step 6:
138 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 10361.0
If we take 87 away from 138, we end up with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 510 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10361.5
Deduct 435 from 510 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
87 goes into 750 8 times with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10361.58
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 696 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 540 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10361.586
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 522 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 180 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10361.5862
Deduct 174 from 180 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
87 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10361.5862
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
87 can be fit into 600 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10361.586206
Subtracting 522 from 600 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.

On to step 13:
87 goes into 780 8 times with a remainder of 84.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10361.5862068
Deduct 696 from 780 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.

Moving on to step 14:
87 can be fit into 840 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10361.58620689
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 10361.58620689 with a balance of 5.7e-08.
