Let's divide 871556 by 88
Our goal is to divide 871556 by 88.

Step 1:
When dividing 8 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 88

Step 2:
If we divide 87 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 87.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 87, we end up with 87.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 87, then repeat: 871 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
88 can be fit into 871 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 79 after subtracting 792 from 871.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 79, then repeat: 795 / 88

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 795 by 88, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 99.0
If we subtract 792 from 795, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 35 / 88

Step 5:
When dividing 35 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 35.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 990.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 0 from 35.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 356 / 88

Going ahead to step 6:
88 can be fit into 356 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9904.0
If we subtract 352 from 356, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 40 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9904.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 400 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9904.04
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.

Advancing to step 9:
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: 9904.045
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 10:
When dividing 400 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9904.0454
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9904.04545
If we take 440 away from 480, we end up 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:
If we divide 400 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 9904.045454
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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9904.0454545
Deduct 440 from 480 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.

Step 14:
If we divide 400 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9904.04545454
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.

Our division results in 9904.04545454 with a remaining 4.8e-08.
