473399 divided by 87 
Our goal is to divide 473399 by 87.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 87

On to step 2:
When dividing 47 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 47.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 47, we get 47.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 473 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 87 fits into 473 5 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 435 from 473 and we're left with 38.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 383 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 383 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 35.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54.0
If we subtract 348 from 383, we get 35.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 359 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 359 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 544.0
Subtract 348 from 359 to get 11.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 119 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
119 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5441.0
Deduct 87 from 119 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
320 divided by 87 is 3 with a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5441.3
If we subtract 261 from 320, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 590 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 68.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5441.36
Subtracting 522 from 590 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 680 7 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5441.367
If we subtract 609 from 680, we get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 710 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5441.3678
Subtracting 696 from 710 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 87, we get 1 with a remainder of 53.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5441.36781
If we take 87 away from 140, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
530 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5441.367816
If we subtract 522 from 530, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
80 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 80.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5441.367816
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 0 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
87 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5441.36781609
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 783 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5441.36781609 and a remainder of 1.7e-08.
