Let's divide 187878 by 88
We want to divide 187878 by 88.

Let's proceed to step 1:
88 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 88

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 18 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 18, we end up with 18.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 187 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
187 divided by 88 is 2 with a remainder of 11.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 176 from 187.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 88

Step 4:
88 goes into 118 1 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtracting 88 from 118 leaves us with 30.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 307 / 88

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 307 by 88, we get 3 and a remainder of 43.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 213.0
Subtracting 264 from 307 leaves us with 43.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 438 / 88

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 438 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 86.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2134.0
If we take 352 away from 438, we end up with 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:
88 goes into 860 9 times with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2134.9
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 792 from 860.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 680 by 88, we get 7 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2134.97
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 616 from 680.
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 9:
When dividing 640 by 88, we get 7 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2134.977
If we subtract 616 from 640, 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.

After the division, we end up with 2134.977 and a remainder of 0.0024.
