218178 divided by 88 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 88 in 218178.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 88

On to step 2:
The number 88 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 21 to get 21.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 218 / 88

On to step 3:
218 divided by 88 is 2 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 176 from 218 to get 42.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 421 / 88

Moving on to step 4:
88 can be fit into 421 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 352 from 421.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 697 / 88

Advancing to step 5:
697 divided by 88 is 7 with a remainder of 81.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 247.0
Deduct 616 from 697 and we're left with 81.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 81 and repeat the process: 818 / 88

Step 6:
If we divide 818 by 88, we get 9 and a remainder of 26.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2479.0
Subtract 792 from 818 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
260 divided by 88 is 2 with a remainder of 84.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2479.2
Subtracting 176 from 260 leaves us with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 840 by 88, we get 9 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2479.29
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:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2479.295
If we subtract 440 from 480, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2479.2954
Deduct 352 from 400 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 480 by 88, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2479.29545
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
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: 2479.295454
Subtract 352 from 400 to 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.

Going ahead 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: 2479.2954545
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.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2479.29545454
Deduct 352 from 400 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.

The final outcome is 2479.29545454, with a leftover of 4.8e-08.
