We look at the division of 876440 by 88 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 88 in 876440.

On to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 88

Step 2:
87 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 87.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 87 and we're left with 87.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 87 and continue: 876 / 88

Advancing to step 3:
876 divided by 88 is 9 with a remainder of 84.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 792 from 876, we get 84.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 84, then carry on: 844 / 88

Moving on to step 4:
The number 88 fits into 844 9 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 99.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 792 from 844.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 524 / 88

Going ahead to step 5:
88 can be fit into 524 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 84.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 995.0
Deduct 440 from 524 and we're left with 84.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 84, then repeat: 840 / 88

Going ahead to step 6:
840 divided by 88 is 9 with a remainder of 48.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9959.0
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.

On to step 7:

The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9959.5
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
88 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 9959.54
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 352 from 400.
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 9:
The number 88 fits into 480 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9959.545
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:
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: 9959.5454
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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 88 fits into 480 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9959.54545
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.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9959.545454
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 88 fits into 480 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9959.5454545
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.

On to step 14:
The number 88 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9959.54545454
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.
