Let's divide 170693 by 87
We want to divide 170693 by 87.

Advancing to step 1:
87 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 87

Step 2:
17 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 170 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 170 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 83.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 87 from 170 leaves us with 83.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 83 and continue with: 836 / 87

Going ahead to step 4:
87 can be fit into 836 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtract 783 from 836 to get 53.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 53 and continue with: 539 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 539 by 87, we get 6 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 196.0
Subtracting 522 from 539 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 173 / 87

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 173 by 87, we get 1 and a remainder of 86.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1961.0
If we subtract 87 from 173, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
87 can be fit into 860 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 77.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1961.9
The remainder is 77 after subtracting 783 from 860.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
87 can be fit into 770 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1961.98
If we subtract 696 from 770, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
740 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1961.988
Subtracting 696 from 740 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1961.988 with a remaining 0.0044.
