Let's divide 429987 by 88
We're looking to find how many times 88 goes into 429987.

Let's proceed to step 1:
88 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 88

Moving on to step 2:
42 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 42 leaves us with 42.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 429 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 429 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 352 from 429 to get 77.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 77, then repeat: 779 / 88

Step 4:
If we divide 779 by 88, we get 8 and a remainder of 75.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtracting 704 from 779 leaves us with 75.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 75, then repeat: 758 / 88

Let's proceed to step 5:
88 goes into 758 8 times with a remainder of 54.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 488.0
If we take 704 away from 758, we end up with 54.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 54, then repeat: 547 / 88

On to step 6:
If we divide 547 by 88, we get 6 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4886.0
If we subtract 528 from 547, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 190 by 88, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4886.2
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 176 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 140 by 88, we get 1 with a remainder of 52.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4886.21
Deduct 88 from 140 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 520 by 88, we get 5 and a remainder of 80.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4886.215
Deduct 440 from 520 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 88 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4886.2159
Subtracting 792 from 800 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 11:
80 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 80.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4886.2159
Subtract 0 from 80 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
88 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4886.215909
Deduct 792 from 800 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
88 can be fit into 80 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4886.215909
Deduct 0 from 80 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 88 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4886.21590909
Subtracting 792 from 800 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4886.21590909, and the remainder is 8e-09.
