496244 ÷ 88 
We want to figure out the number of times 496244 can be divided by 88.

On to step 1:
The number 88 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 88

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 88 fits into 49 0 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 496 / 88

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 496 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 440 from 496, we get 56.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 56 and continue: 562 / 88

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 88 fits into 562 6 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56.0
If we subtract 528 from 562, we get 34.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 344 / 88

Step 5:
88 can be fit into 344 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 563.0
If we subtract 264 from 344, we get 80.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 80 and continue with: 804 / 88

Going ahead to step 6:
88 goes into 804 9 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5639.0
If we take 792 away from 804, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 120 by 88, we get 1 and a remainder of 32.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5639.1
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 88 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
88 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5639.13
Deduct 264 from 320 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 88 fits into 560 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5639.136
If we subtract 528 from 560, we get 32.
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 10:
If we divide 320 by 88, we get 3 and a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5639.1363
If we take 264 away from 320, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
88 can be fit into 560 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5639.13636
If we take 528 away from 560, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 88 fits into 320 3 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5639.136363
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 264 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 13:
560 divided by 88 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5639.1363636
Deduct 528 from 560 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 88 fits into 320 3 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5639.13636363
If we take 264 away from 320, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The final result is 5639.13636363 with a remainder of 5.6e-08.
