We look at the division of 551205 by 88 
We want to divide 551205 by 88.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 88

Step 2:
When dividing 55 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 55, we get 55.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 551 / 88

On to step 3:
88 can be fit into 551 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 528 away from 551, we end up with 23.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 232 / 88

On to step 4:
The number 88 fits into 232 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 62.0
Subtract 176 from 232 to get 56.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 560 / 88

On to step 5:
If we divide 560 by 88, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 626.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 528 from 560.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 325 / 88

On to step 6:
88 goes into 325 3 times with a remainder of 61.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6263.0
Deduct 264 from 325 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
88 goes into 610 6 times with a remainder of 82.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6263.6
Deduct 528 from 610 and we're left with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 88 fits into 820 9 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6263.69
If we take 792 away from 820, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 280 by 88, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6263.693
Deduct 264 from 280 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.

Step 10:
When dividing 160 by 88, we get 1 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6263.6931
If we subtract 88 from 160, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 720 by 88, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6263.69318
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 704 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 88 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6263.693181
If we subtract 88 from 160, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 13:
88 can be fit into 720 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6263.6931818
If we take 704 away from 720, 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.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 88 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6263.69318181
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 88 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

The final result is 6263.69318181 with a remainder of 7.2e-08.
