Let's divide 878908 by 28
Our goal is to divide 878908 by 28.

Step 1:
If we divide 8 by 28, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 28

On to step 2:
28 can be fit into 87 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 84 from 87 and we're left with 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 28 fits into 38 1 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 28 from 38.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 109 / 28

On to step 4:
28 can be fit into 109 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 313.0
If we take 84 away from 109, we end up with 25.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 250 / 28

On to step 5:
When dividing 250 by 28, we get 8 with a remainder of 26.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3138.0
Subtracting 224 from 250 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 268 / 28

Step 6:
When dividing 268 by 28, we get 9 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31389.0
If we take 252 away from 268, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 160 by 28, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31389.5
Subtracting 140 from 160 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
200 divided by 28 is 7 with a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31389.57
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 196 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
28 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31389.571
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 28 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
120 divided by 28 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 31389.5714
If we subtract 112 from 120, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 28 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31389.57142
Subtract 56 from 80 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
28 goes into 240 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31389.571428
Deduct 224 from 240 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
160 divided by 28 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31389.5714285
Subtracting 140 from 160 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
200 divided by 28 is 7 with a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31389.57142857
If we take 196 away from 200, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 31389.57142857, and the remainder is 4e-09.
