Let's divide 521278 by 88
We want to figure out the number of times 521278 can be divided by 88.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 88

On to step 2:
When dividing 52 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 52.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up with 52.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 521 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
88 goes into 521 5 times with a remainder of 81.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 81 after subtracting 440 from 521.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 81, then carry on: 812 / 88

Step 4:
If we divide 812 by 88, we get 9 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtracting 792 from 812 leaves us with 20.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 207 / 88

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 207 by 88, we get 2 and a remainder of 31.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 592.0
Subtracting 176 from 207 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 318 / 88

Let's proceed to step 6:
318 divided by 88 is 3 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5923.0
If we take 264 away from 318, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
540 divided by 88 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5923.6
If we take 528 away from 540, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
120 divided by 88 is 1 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5923.61
Subtract 88 from 120 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 88 fits into 320 3 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5923.613
If we take 264 away from 320, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
88 can be fit into 560 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5923.6136
Deduct 528 from 560 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
88 can be fit into 320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5923.61363
If we take 264 away from 320, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 560 by 88, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5923.613636
Subtract 528 from 560 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 88 fits into 320 3 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5923.6136363
Subtract 264 from 320 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 560 by 88, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5923.61363636
Subtracting 528 from 560 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5923.61363636, with a leftover of 3.2e-08.
