473096 ÷ 87 
We want to divide 473096 by 87.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 87

Step 2:
If we divide 47 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 47 leaves us with 47.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 473 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 473 by 87, we get 5 and a remainder of 38.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 435 from 473.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 380 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
380 divided by 87 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 54.0
If we take 348 away from 380, we end up with 32.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 329 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
87 can be fit into 329 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 543.0
Subtracting 261 from 329 leaves us with 68.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 68, then repeat: 686 / 87

Moving on to step 6:
686 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 77.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5437.0
Deduct 609 from 686 and we're left with 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 770 8 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5437.8
Deduct 696 from 770 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 87 fits into 740 8 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5437.88
Deduct 696 from 740 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5437.88 with a remaining 0.044.
