Let's divide 288898 by 12
We want to figure out the number of times 288898 can be divided by 12.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 12, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 12

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 12, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 24 away from 28, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 12

Going ahead to step 3:
12 can be fit into 48 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 48 from 48 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 12

Going ahead to step 4:
12 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 240.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 12

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 89 by 12, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2407.0
Subtract 84 from 89 to get 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 12

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 58 by 12, we get 4 and a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24074.0
If we take 48 away from 58, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 100 by 12, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24074.8
If we subtract 96 from 100, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 12 fits into 40 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24074.83
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 12, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 24074.833
Subtract 36 from 40 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 24074.833 and a remainder of 0.0004.
