Let's divide 596635 by 87
We're looking to find how many times 87 goes into 596635.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 87, we get 0 and 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 (9) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 59 / 87

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 59 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 59 to get 59.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 596 / 87

Going ahead to step 3:
87 goes into 596 6 times with a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 522 from 596 and we're left with 74.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 74, then carry on: 746 / 87

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 746 by 87, we get 8 and a remainder of 50.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 68.0
If we take 696 away from 746, we end up with 50.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 503 / 87

Going ahead to step 5:
503 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 685.0
If we take 435 away from 503, we end up with 68.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 68, then repeat: 685 / 87

On to step 6:
The number 87 fits into 685 7 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6857.0
Deduct 609 from 685 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
760 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6857.8
Subtract 696 from 760 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
87 can be fit into 640 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6857.87
Subtracting 609 from 640 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 87 fits into 310 3 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6857.873
Deduct 261 from 310 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 490 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6857.8735
Subtract 435 from 490 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 550 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6857.87356
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.

On to step 12:
When dividing 280 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6857.873563
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 190 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6857.8735632
Subtracting 174 from 190 leaves us 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.

On to step 14:
The number 87 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 73.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6857.87356321
Subtract 87 from 160 to 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.

The final outcome is 6857.87356321, with a leftover of 7.3e-08.
