Let's divide 174307 by 87
We want to divide 174307 by 87.

Step 1:
The number 87 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 87

Step 2:
The number 87 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 174 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 174 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 174 from 174.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 3 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 30 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
30 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 200.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 307 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 87 fits into 307 3 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2003.0
If we take 261 away from 307, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 460 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2003.5
If we take 435 away from 460, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 8:
87 can be fit into 250 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2003.52
If we take 174 away from 250, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 760 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2003.528
If we subtract 696 from 760, we 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 640 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2003.5287
If we take 609 away from 640, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
87 can be fit into 310 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2003.52873
If we take 261 away from 310, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 490 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2003.528735
If we subtract 435 from 490, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 550 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2003.5287356
If we take 522 away from 550, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 280 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 19.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2003.52873563
Subtracting 261 from 280 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2003.52873563 with a remaining 1.9e-08.
