We divide 116904 by 87
We want to divide 116904 by 87.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 87

Step 2:
The number 87 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 116 / 87

Step 3:
When dividing 116 by 87, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 87 from 116 leaves us with 29.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 299 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
87 goes into 299 3 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 261 from 299 and we're left with 38.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 380 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 380 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 134.0
If we subtract 348 from 380, we get 32.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 324 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
The number 87 fits into 324 3 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1343.0
Subtracting 261 from 324 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 630 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 21.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1343.7
Deduct 609 from 630 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 87 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1343.72
Subtract 174 from 210 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 9:
87 goes into 360 4 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1343.724
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 10:
The number 87 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1343.7241
Deduct 87 from 120 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 11:
330 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 69.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1343.72413
If we subtract 261 from 330, we get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
87 can be fit into 690 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 81.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1343.724137
Deduct 609 from 690 and we're left with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
810 divided by 87 is 9 with a remainder of 27.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1343.7241379
Subtract 783 from 810 to 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.

On to step 14:
87 can be fit into 270 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1343.72413793
Deduct 261 from 270 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1343.72413793 and a remainder of 9e-09.
