Let's divide 149683 by 88
We want to figure out the number of times 149683 can be divided by 88.

Let's proceed to step 1:
88 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 88

Step 2:
88 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 149 / 88

Advancing to step 3:
The number 88 fits into 149 1 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 88 from 149 and we're left with 61.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 61 and continue: 616 / 88

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 616 by 88, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 616 from 616 and we're left with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 88

Moving on to step 5:
8 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 170.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 83 / 88

Advancing to step 6:
83 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 83.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1700.0
The remainder is 83 after subtracting 0 from 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
88 can be fit into 830 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1700.9
If we take 792 away from 830, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 88 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1700.94
Subtracting 352 from 380 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
88 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1700.943
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 264 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 88 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1700.9431
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.

Advancing to step 11:
720 divided by 88 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1700.94318
If we take 704 away from 720, we end up with 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:
The number 88 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1700.943181
Subtracting 88 from 160 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.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 88 fits into 720 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1700.9431818
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.

On to step 14:
The number 88 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1700.94318181
If we subtract 88 from 160, we 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.

Our division results in 1700.94318181 with a remaining 7.2e-08.
