We divide 505046 by 87
Our goal is to divide 505046 by 87.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 50 / 87

Step 2:
When dividing 50 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 505 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
87 goes into 505 5 times with a remainder of 70.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 435 from 505 to get 70.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 70, then repeat: 700 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
87 goes into 700 8 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we take 696 away from 700, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 44 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
87 goes into 44 0 times with a remainder of 44.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 580.0
If we subtract 0 from 44, we get 44.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 446 / 87

Let's proceed to step 6:
87 goes into 446 5 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5805.0
Subtracting 435 from 446 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
110 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5805.1
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 87 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 230 by 87, we get 2 with a remainder of 56.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5805.12
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 174 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 560 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5805.126
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 522 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 87 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5805.1264
Subtracting 348 from 380 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 11:
87 can be fit into 320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5805.12643
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 590 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5805.126436
If we take 522 away from 590, we end up 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 13:
When dividing 680 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5805.1264367
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 609 from 680.
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 14:
When dividing 710 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5805.12643678
Deduct 696 from 710 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 5805.12643678 with a balance of 1.4e-08.
