87141 divided by 55 
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 87141.

Going ahead to step 1:
8 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 55

Advancing to step 2:
55 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 55 from 87 leaves us with 32.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 321 / 55

On to step 3:
321 divided by 55 is 5 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 275 from 321 to get 46.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 464 / 55

Step 4:
55 can be fit into 464 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 158.0
Deduct 440 from 464 and we're left with 24.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 241 / 55

Step 5:
If we divide 241 by 55, we get 4 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1584.0
If we subtract 220 from 241, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
55 can be fit into 210 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1584.3
Subtract 165 from 210 to 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 7:
55 can be fit into 450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1584.38
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 440 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
100 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1584.381
Subtract 55 from 100 to 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.

Moving on to step 9:
450 divided by 55 is 8 with a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1584.3818
If we take 440 away from 450, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 100 by 55, we get 1 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1584.38181
If we take 55 away from 100, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
55 can be fit into 450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1584.381818
If we take 440 away from 450, we end up 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.

Step 12:
55 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1584.3818181
Subtract 55 from 100 to 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.

Step 13:
The number 55 fits into 450 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1584.38181818
If we take 440 away from 450, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 1584.38181818 and a remainder of 1e-08.
