Let's divide 562740 by 87
Our goal is to divide 562740 by 87.

Step 1:
87 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 56 / 87

On to step 2:
When dividing 56 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 0 from 56.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 562 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
562 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 522 from 562 leaves us with 40.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 407 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 407 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 59.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 64.0
Subtracting 348 from 407 leaves us with 59.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 59, then repeat: 594 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
87 can be fit into 594 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 646.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 522 from 594.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 720 / 87

Advancing to step 6:
87 goes into 720 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6468.0
If we subtract 696 from 720, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 87 fits into 240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6468.2
Deduct 174 from 240 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 660 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6468.27
If we subtract 609 from 660, we get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 510 by 87, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6468.275
If we take 435 away from 510, we end up with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 87 fits into 750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6468.2758
If we subtract 696 from 750, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
540 divided by 87 is 6 with a remainder of 18.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6468.27586
If we take 522 away from 540, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 87 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6468.275862
Deduct 174 from 180 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 13:
87 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6468.275862
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
87 goes into 600 6 times with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6468.27586206
If we take 522 away from 600, we end up with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6468.27586206 with a remaining 7.8e-08.
