Let's divide 987217 by 86
Let's see how many times 86 fits into 987217.

Let's proceed to step 1:
86 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 86

Advancing to step 2:
86 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 86 from 98 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 86

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 127 by 86, we get 1 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 86 from 127 and we're left with 41.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 412 / 86

Step 4:
When dividing 412 by 86, we get 4 with a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 114.0
Subtract 344 from 412 to get 68.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 68 and continue with: 681 / 86

Let's proceed to step 5:
681 divided by 86 is 7 with a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1147.0
Subtract 602 from 681 to get 79.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 79 and repeat the process: 797 / 86

Step 6:
The number 86 fits into 797 9 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11479.0
If we subtract 774 from 797, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 230 by 86, we get 2 and a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11479.2
If we subtract 172 from 230, we get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
580 divided by 86 is 6 with a remainder of 64.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11479.26
Subtract 516 from 580 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 9:
86 goes into 640 7 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11479.267
Subtract 602 from 640 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
380 divided by 86 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11479.2674
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 344 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
360 divided by 86 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11479.26744
Subtracting 344 from 360 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11479.26744 and a remainder of 1.6e-05.
