We divide 254954 by 87
Let's see how many times 87 fits into 254954.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 87

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 254 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
254 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 80.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 174 from 254 leaves us with 80.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 80, then carry on: 809 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 809 9 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 783 from 809 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 265 / 87

Advancing to step 5:
265 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 293.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 261 from 265.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 44 / 87

Step 6:
If we divide 44 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 44.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2930.0
Subtract 0 from 44 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 7:
87 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2930.5
Deduct 435 from 440 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 50 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2930.5
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
500 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 65.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2930.505
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 435 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
650 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2930.5057
Deduct 609 from 650 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 87 fits into 410 4 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2930.50574
Subtracting 348 from 410 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 87 fits into 620 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2930.505747
If we subtract 609 from 620, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 110 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2930.5057471
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 87 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 14:
87 can be fit into 230 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2930.50574712
If we take 174 away from 230, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2930.50574712 and a remainder of 5.6e-08.
