164271 divided by 87 
Our goal is to divide 164271 by 87.

On to step 1:
The number 87 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 87

On to step 2:
16 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 164 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 164 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 77.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 87 away from 164, we end up with 77.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 77 and continue with: 772 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 772 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 696 from 772, we get 76.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 76 and repeat the process: 767 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
87 goes into 767 8 times with a remainder of 71.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 188.0
If we take 696 away from 767, we end up with 71.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 711 / 87

Let's proceed to step 6:
711 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1888.0
If we subtract 696 from 711, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 150 by 87, we get 1 with a remainder of 63.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1888.1
Subtracting 87 from 150 leaves us with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
87 goes into 630 7 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1888.17
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 609 from 630.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1888.172
If we take 174 away from 210, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
87 can be fit into 360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1888.1724
If we subtract 348 from 360, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 120 by 87, we get 1 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1888.17241
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 87 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
87 can be fit into 330 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1888.172413
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 261 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 690 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 81.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1888.1724137
The remainder is 81 after subtracting 609 from 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 87 fits into 810 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1888.17241379
If we subtract 783 from 810, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

The final result is 1888.17241379 with a remainder of 2.7e-08.
