Let's divide 204179 by 88
Let's see how many times 88 fits into 204179.

On to step 1:
88 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 88

On to step 2:
When dividing 20 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 204 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 204 by 88, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 176 from 204.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 281 / 88

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 281 by 88, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we subtract 264 from 281, we get 17.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 177 / 88

On to step 5:
The number 88 fits into 177 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 232.0
Subtracting 176 from 177 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 88

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 19 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2320.0
Subtract 0 from 19 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
88 can be fit into 190 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2320.2
If we take 176 away from 190, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
140 divided by 88 is 1 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2320.21
Deduct 88 from 140 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
88 can be fit into 520 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2320.215
Subtract 440 from 520 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
88 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2320.2159
If we take 792 away from 800, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 88 fits into 80 0 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2320.2159
Subtracting 0 from 80 leaves us with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 800 by 88, we get 9 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2320.215909
If we subtract 792 from 800, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 88 fits into 80 0 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2320.215909
If we take 0 away from 80, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
800 divided by 88 is 9 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2320.21590909
Deduct 792 from 800 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 2320.21590909 with a remainder of 8e-09.
