We divide 974857 by 88
We want to divide 974857 by 88.

Advancing to step 1:
88 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 88

On to step 2:
The number 88 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 88 from 97, we get 9.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 94 / 88

Going ahead to step 3:
88 can be fit into 94 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 88 from 94 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 88

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 68 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 68.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 110.0
If we subtract 0 from 68, we get 68.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 68 and continue with: 685 / 88

Moving on to step 5:
88 can be fit into 685 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1107.0
Subtract 616 from 685 to get 69.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 69 and continue: 697 / 88

On to step 6:
697 divided by 88 is 7 with a remainder of 81.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11077.0
If we subtract 616 from 697, we get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
810 divided by 88 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11077.9
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 792 from 810.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
88 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11077.92
Deduct 176 from 180 and we're left with 4.
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:
88 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11077.92
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left 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 10:
400 divided by 88 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11077.9204
If we subtract 352 from 400, we 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 11:
88 goes into 480 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11077.92045
Subtracting 440 from 480 leaves us 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 12:
88 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11077.920454
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.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11077.9204545
Subtracting 440 from 480 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
400 divided by 88 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11077.92045454
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.

The final result is 11077.92045454 with a remainder of 4.8e-08.
