We look at the division of 88608187 by 204 
We want to divide 88608187 by 204.

Advancing to step 1:
204 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 204

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 204 fits into 88 0 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 88, we get 88.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 88, then repeat: 886 / 204

Let's proceed to step 3:
204 goes into 886 4 times with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 816 from 886, we get 70.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 70 and repeat the process: 700 / 204

Moving on to step 4:
The number 204 fits into 700 3 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we take 612 away from 700, we end up with 88.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 88 and continue: 888 / 204

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 888 by 204, we get 4 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 434.0
Subtracting 816 from 888 leaves us with 72.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 721 / 204

Step 6:
The number 204 fits into 721 3 times, leaving a remainder of 109.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4343.0
If we take 612 away from 721, we end up with 109.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 109 and continue with: 1098 / 204

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 1098 by 204, we get 5 and a remainder of 78.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43435.0
Subtract 1020 from 1098 to get 78.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 78, then repeat: 787 / 204

Step 8:
When dividing 787 by 204, we get 3 with a remainder of 175.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 434353.0
If we take 612 away from 787, we end up with 175.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 204 fits into 1750 8 times, leaving a remainder of 118.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 434353.8
Deduct 1632 from 1750 and we're left with 118.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
1180 divided by 204 is 5 with a remainder of 160.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 434353.85
The remainder is 160 after subtracting 1020 from 1180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 204 fits into 1600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 172.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 434353.857
Subtract 1428 from 1600 to get 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 204 fits into 1720 8 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 434353.8578
Subtracting 1632 from 1720 leaves us with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 880 by 204, we get 4 and a remainder of 64.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 434353.85784
If we take 816 away from 880, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 640 by 204, we get 3 with a remainder of 28.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 434353.857843
Subtract 612 from 640 to get 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 15:
When dividing 280 by 204, we get 1 with a remainder of 76.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 434353.8578431
Subtract 204 from 280 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
204 goes into 760 3 times with a remainder of 148.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 434353.85784313
Deduct 612 from 760 and we're left with 148.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1480, and continue the process.

Our division results in 434353.85784313 with a remaining 1.48e-07.
