874729 divided by 87 
We want to figure out the number of times 874729 can be divided by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
87 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 87 from 87 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
87 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 47 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 100.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 0 from 47.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 472 / 87

Step 5:
87 can be fit into 472 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1005.0
If we take 435 away from 472, we end up with 37.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 379 / 87

Let's proceed to step 6:
379 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 31.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10054.0
Subtracting 348 from 379 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 7:
310 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 49.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10054.3
If we subtract 261 from 310, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 490 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10054.35
Subtracting 435 from 490 leaves us 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.

Step 9:
87 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10054.356
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 522 from 550.
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 10:
87 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10054.3563
If we take 261 away from 280, we end up 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.

On to step 11:
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: 10054.35632
Deduct 174 from 190 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 87, we get 1 with a remainder of 73.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10054.356321
If we subtract 87 from 160, we get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 730 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10054.3563218
If we subtract 696 from 730, we 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 87 fits into 340 3 times, leaving a remainder of 79.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10054.35632183
Subtract 261 from 340 to get 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Our division results in 10054.35632183 with a remaining 7.9e-08.
