We divide 41980 by 88
We're looking to find how many times 88 goes into 41980.

Moving on to step 1:
88 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 41 / 88

Advancing to step 2:
88 can be fit into 41 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 41 and we're left with 41.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 419 / 88

On to step 3:
When dividing 419 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 67.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 352 from 419 leaves us with 67.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 678 / 88

On to step 4:
When dividing 678 by 88, we get 7 with a remainder of 62.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47.0
If we subtract 616 from 678, we get 62.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 620 / 88

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 620 by 88, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 477.0
Deduct 616 from 620 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
88 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 477.0
Deduct 0 from 40 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.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 88 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 477.04
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.

Step 8:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 477.045
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 477.0454
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 10:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 477.04545
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 11:
When dividing 400 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 477.045454
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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 480 by 88, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 477.0454545
Subtract 440 from 480 to 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.

Step 13:
88 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 477.04545454
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.

Our division results in 477.04545454 with a remaining 4.8e-08.
