We look at the division of 278088 by 50 
We're looking to find how many times 50 goes into 278088.

On to step 1:
The number 50 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 50

On to step 2:
The number 50 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 27 and we're left with 27.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 278 / 50

Moving on to step 3:
50 goes into 278 5 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 250 from 278, we get 28.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 280 / 50

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 50 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we subtract 250 from 280, we get 30.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 308 / 50

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 308 by 50, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 556.0
Subtract 300 from 308 to get 8.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 88 / 50

Step 6:
50 goes into 88 1 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5561.0
Subtracting 50 from 88 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 7:
50 can be fit into 380 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5561.7
If we subtract 350 from 380, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 8:
300 divided by 50 is 6 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5561.76
Subtract 300 from 300 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 50, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5561.76
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
50 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5561.76
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5561.76 with a balance of 0.0.
