We look at the division of 285377 by 88 
We want to divide 285377 by 88.

Moving on to step 1:
88 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 88

Let's proceed to step 2:
88 goes into 28 0 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 285 / 88

On to step 3:
When dividing 285 by 88, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 264 from 285.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 213 / 88

Advancing to step 4:
213 divided by 88 is 2 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 176 from 213.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 377 / 88

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 377 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 25.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 324.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 352 from 377.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 257 / 88

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 257 by 88, we get 2 with a remainder of 81.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3242.0
If we subtract 176 from 257, we get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
88 can be fit into 810 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3242.9
Deduct 792 from 810 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
88 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3242.92
Subtract 176 from 180 to 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3242.92
Subtracting 0 from 40 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3242.9204
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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 88 fits into 480 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3242.92045
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.

On to step 12:
88 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3242.920454
Deduct 352 from 400 and we're left 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 13:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3242.9204545
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.

Step 14:
If we divide 400 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3242.92045454
If we take 352 away from 400, 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 3242.92045454 with a balance of 4.8e-08.
