Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8603.0
Deduct 2961 from 3697 and we're left with 736.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 736, then repeat: 7368 / 987

Moving on to step 8:
987 goes into 7368 7 times with a remainder of 459.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86037.0
Deduct 6909 from 7368 and we're left with 459.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4590, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 4590 by 987, we get 4 and a remainder of 642.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 86037.4
Subtract 3948 from 4590 to get 642.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6420, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
6420 divided by 987 is 6 with a remainder of 498.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 86037.46
If we subtract 5922 from 6420, we get 498.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4980, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 4980 by 987, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 86037.465
Subtract 4935 from 4980 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
450 divided by 987 is 0 with a remainder of 450.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 86037.465
If we subtract 0 from 450, we get 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4500, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
987 goes into 4500 4 times with a remainder of 552.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 86037.46504
If we subtract 3948 from 4500, we get 552.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5520, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 5520 by 987, we get 5 with a remainder of 585.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86037.465045
The remainder is 585 after subtracting 4935 from 5520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5850, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 5850 by 987, we get 5 with a remainder of 915.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86037.4650455
Subtracting 4935 from 5850 leaves us with 915.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9150, and continue the process.

Our division results in 86037.4650455 with a remaining 9.15e-06.
