We're dividing 272782 by 88 
We're looking to find how many times 88 goes into 272782.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 88

Moving on to step 2:
The number 88 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 272 / 88

On to step 3:
88 can be fit into 272 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 264 from 272 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 88

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 88 fits into 87 0 times, leaving a remainder of 87.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtracting 0 from 87 leaves us with 87.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 87, then repeat: 878 / 88

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 88 fits into 878 9 times, leaving a remainder of 86.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 309.0
If we subtract 792 from 878, we get 86.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 86 and continue with: 862 / 88

On to step 6:
When dividing 862 by 88, we get 9 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3099.0
Subtracting 792 from 862 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
88 goes into 700 7 times with a remainder of 84.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3099.7
Subtract 616 from 700 to get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
88 can be fit into 840 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3099.79
Deduct 792 from 840 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 480 by 88, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3099.795
Subtracting 440 from 480 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 88 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3099.7954
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 352 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
480 divided by 88 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3099.79545
If we take 440 away from 480, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3099.795454
If we subtract 352 from 400, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
88 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3099.7954545
If we take 440 away from 480, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
88 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3099.79545454
If we subtract 352 from 400, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3099.79545454 with a balance of 4.8e-08.
