We divide 311288 by 88
Our goal is to divide 311288 by 88.

On to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 88

Going ahead to step 2:
88 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 311 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
The number 88 fits into 311 3 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 264 from 311, we get 47.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 472 / 88

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 472 by 88, we get 5 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 35.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 440 from 472.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 328 / 88

Step 5:
328 divided by 88 is 3 with a remainder of 64.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 353.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 264 from 328.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 64, then repeat: 648 / 88

Step 6:
88 goes into 648 7 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3537.0
If we subtract 616 from 648, we 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.

Advancing to step 7:
320 divided by 88 is 3 with a remainder of 56.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3537.3
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.

Step 8:
560 divided by 88 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3537.36
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.

Step 9:
320 divided by 88 is 3 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3537.363
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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 560 by 88, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3537.3636
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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 88, we get 3 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3537.36363
Subtracting 264 from 320 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 560 by 88, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3537.363636
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 528 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
88 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3537.3636363
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 264 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 88 fits into 560 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3537.36363636
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 3537.36363636 with a balance of 3.2e-08.
