We divide 281948 by 88
We want to divide 281948 by 88.

Advancing to step 1:
88 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 88

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 28.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 281 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
The number 88 fits into 281 3 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 264 from 281.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 179 / 88

Moving on to step 4:
The number 88 fits into 179 2 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 176 from 179, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 88

Let's proceed to step 5:
34 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 320.0
If we take 0 away from 34, we end up with 34.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 348 / 88

Advancing to step 6:
348 divided by 88 is 3 with a remainder of 84.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3203.0
Subtracting 264 from 348 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
88 goes into 840 9 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3203.9
If we subtract 792 from 840, 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 8:
88 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3203.95
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
400 divided by 88 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3203.954
Subtracting 352 from 400 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
88 goes into 480 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3203.9545
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.

On to step 11:
88 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3203.95454
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.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3203.954545
Deduct 440 from 480 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 400 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3203.9545454
If we take 352 away from 400, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3203.95454545
Deduct 440 from 480 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 3203.95454545, and the remainder is 4e-08.
