Let's divide 289857 by 88
Our goal is to divide 289857 by 88.

Going ahead to step 1:
88 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
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 / 88

Step 2:
28 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 28 and we're left with 28.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 289 / 88

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 289 by 88, we get 3 and a remainder of 25.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 264 from 289 and we're left with 25.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 258 / 88

Going ahead to step 4:
258 divided by 88 is 2 with a remainder of 82.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 176 from 258, we get 82.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 82, then repeat: 825 / 88

On to step 5:
88 goes into 825 9 times with a remainder of 33.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 329.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 792 from 825.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 337 / 88

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 337 by 88, we get 3 with a remainder of 73.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3293.0
Subtract 264 from 337 to get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 88 fits into 730 8 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3293.8
Subtracting 704 from 730 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 260 by 88, we get 2 with a remainder of 84.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3293.82
If we subtract 176 from 260, we get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
840 divided by 88 is 9 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3293.829
If we take 792 away from 840, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
88 goes into 480 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3293.8295
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.

Step 11:
400 divided by 88 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3293.82954
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 12:
88 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3293.829545
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.

Step 13:
88 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3293.8295454
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 14:
88 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3293.82954545
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 440 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3293.82954545 with a remaining 4e-08.
