We divide 681989 by 88
We want to divide 681989 by 88.

Going ahead to step 1:
6 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 88

On to step 2:
When dividing 68 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 68, we get 68.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 68, then repeat: 681 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 681 by 88, we get 7 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 616 away from 681, we end up with 65.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 65 and repeat the process: 659 / 88

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 659 by 88, we get 7 with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 77.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 616 from 659.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 438 / 88

Step 5:
The number 88 fits into 438 4 times, leaving a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 774.0
Deduct 352 from 438 and we're left with 86.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 86, then repeat: 869 / 88

Step 6:
88 goes into 869 9 times with a remainder of 77.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7749.0
If we subtract 792 from 869, we get 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
88 goes into 770 8 times with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7749.8
If we subtract 704 from 770, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
660 divided by 88 is 7 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7749.87
Subtract 616 from 660 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
440 divided by 88 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7749.875
If we subtract 440 from 440, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
0 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7749.875
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 0 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7749.875
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7749.875 with a balance of 0.0.
