263749 ÷ 88 
We want to divide 263749 by 88.

On to step 1:
88 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 88

Step 2:
The number 88 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 263 / 88

On to step 3:
If we divide 263 by 88, we get 2 and a remainder of 87.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 176 from 263, we get 87.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 87 and repeat the process: 877 / 88

Advancing to step 4:
88 goes into 877 9 times with a remainder of 85.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtract 792 from 877 to get 85.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 85 and continue with: 854 / 88

Step 5:
If we divide 854 by 88, we get 9 and a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 299.0
Subtract 792 from 854 to get 62.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 62, then carry on: 629 / 88

On to step 6:
The number 88 fits into 629 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2997.0
Deduct 616 from 629 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 130 by 88, we get 1 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2997.1
Subtracting 88 from 130 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
88 goes into 420 4 times with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2997.14
If we take 352 away from 420, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
88 can be fit into 680 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2997.147
Subtract 616 from 680 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 88 fits into 640 7 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2997.1477
Subtracting 616 from 640 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final result is 2997.1477 with a remainder of 0.00024.
