We divide 31443 by 88
Let's see how many times 88 fits into 31443.

On to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 88

Going ahead to step 2:
31 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 314 / 88

On to step 3:
88 can be fit into 314 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 264 from 314 leaves us with 50.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 50, then repeat: 504 / 88

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 88 fits into 504 5 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 440 from 504.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 64 and continue with: 643 / 88

Let's proceed to step 5:
643 divided by 88 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 357.0
If we subtract 616 from 643, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
270 divided by 88 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 357.3
Subtract 264 from 270 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
88 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 357.3
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
88 goes into 600 6 times with a remainder of 72.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 357.306
Subtracting 528 from 600 leaves us with 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 9:
When dividing 720 by 88, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 357.3068
Subtract 704 from 720 to get 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 10:
When dividing 160 by 88, we get 1 with a remainder of 72.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 357.30681
Deduct 88 from 160 and we're left with 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 11:
720 divided by 88 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 357.306818
If we subtract 704 from 720, we get 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 12:
160 divided by 88 is 1 with a remainder of 72.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 357.3068181
Subtract 88 from 160 to 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.

On to step 13:
The number 88 fits into 720 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 357.30681818
If we subtract 704 from 720, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 357.30681818 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
