We divide 50461 by 88
Our goal is to divide 50461 by 88.

Let's proceed to step 1:
88 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 88

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 88 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 504 / 88

Going ahead to step 3:
504 divided by 88 is 5 with a remainder of 64.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 440 from 504, we get 64.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 64 and continue with: 646 / 88

On to step 4:
88 can be fit into 646 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we subtract 616 from 646, we get 30.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 301 / 88

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 301 by 88, we get 3 and a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 573.0
If we subtract 264 from 301, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 370 by 88, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 573.4
Deduct 352 from 370 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.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 180 by 88, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 573.42
If we take 176 away from 180, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 573.42
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 9:
When dividing 400 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 573.4204
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
480 divided by 88 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 573.42045
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
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: 573.420454
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 480 by 88, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 573.4204545
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
88 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 573.42045454
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.

After the division, we end up with 573.42045454 and a remainder of 4.8e-08.
