We look at the division of 311532 by 87 
We want to figure out the number of times 311532 can be divided by 87.

Let's proceed to step 1:
87 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 87

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 31 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 311 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
87 goes into 311 3 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 261 from 311, we get 50.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 505 / 87

Step 4:
505 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35.0
Deduct 435 from 505 and we're left with 70.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 70, then repeat: 703 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 87 fits into 703 8 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 358.0
If we subtract 696 from 703, we get 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 87

On to step 6:
If we divide 72 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3580.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
87 goes into 720 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3580.8
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 696 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
87 goes into 240 2 times with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3580.82
If we take 174 away from 240, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 9:
660 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 51.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3580.827
If we take 609 away from 660, 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.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 510 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3580.8275
Subtract 435 from 510 to get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
750 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 54.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3580.82758
Subtracting 696 from 750 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
87 can be fit into 540 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3580.827586
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.

Moving on to step 13:
180 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3580.8275862
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 174 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
87 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3580.8275862
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3580.8275862, and the remainder is 6e-08.
