We divide 525883 by 87
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 525883.

Step 1:
87 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 87

On to step 2:
The number 87 fits into 52 0 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 52 to get 52.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 525 / 87

Step 3:
The number 87 fits into 525 6 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 522 from 525 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
87 goes into 38 0 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 388 / 87

On to step 5:
The number 87 fits into 388 4 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 604.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 348 from 388.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 403 / 87

Step 6:
87 goes into 403 4 times with a remainder of 55.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6044.0
If we take 348 away from 403, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
87 goes into 550 6 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6044.6
Subtract 522 from 550 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 280 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6044.63
If we subtract 261 from 280, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 190 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6044.632
If we take 174 away from 190, we end up 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.

Step 10:
87 goes into 160 1 times with a remainder of 73.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6044.6321
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 87 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
730 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6044.63218
Subtract 696 from 730 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
87 can be fit into 340 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6044.632183
Deduct 261 from 340 and we're left with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
87 goes into 790 9 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6044.6321839
If we subtract 783 from 790, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 87 fits into 70 0 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6044.6321839
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6044.6321839 with a remaining 7e-08.
