253496 ÷ 87 
Our goal is to divide 253496 by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 87

On to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 25, we get 25.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 253 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
87 can be fit into 253 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 174 from 253 to get 79.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 79, then repeat: 794 / 87

Moving on to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 794 9 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtract 783 from 794 to get 11.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 119 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
119 divided by 87 is 1 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 291.0
Deduct 87 from 119 and we're left with 32.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 326 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 326 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2913.0
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 261 from 326.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
650 divided by 87 is 7 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2913.7
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 609 from 650.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 410 by 87, we get 4 and a remainder of 62.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2913.74
Subtract 348 from 410 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 620 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2913.747
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 609 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 110 by 87, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2913.7471
If we subtract 87 from 110, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 230 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 56.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2913.74712
Subtract 174 from 230 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
87 goes into 560 6 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2913.747126
Deduct 522 from 560 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
87 can be fit into 380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2913.7471264
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 348 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
87 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 59.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2913.74712643
Subtract 261 from 320 to 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.

After the division, we end up with 2913.74712643 and a remainder of 5.9e-08.
