Let's divide 742308 by 88
We want to figure out the number of times 742308 can be divided by 88.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 88

Advancing to step 2:
88 can be fit into 74 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 74 leaves us with 74.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 74, then carry on: 742 / 88

Step 3:
The number 88 fits into 742 8 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 704 from 742 and we're left with 38.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 383 / 88

On to step 4:
The number 88 fits into 383 4 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 84.0
Subtract 352 from 383 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 310 / 88

Moving on to step 5:
88 can be fit into 310 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 843.0
Deduct 264 from 310 and we're left with 46.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 46 and continue: 468 / 88

Step 6:
88 can be fit into 468 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8435.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 440 from 468.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
280 divided by 88 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8435.3
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 264 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 160 by 88, we get 1 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8435.31
Deduct 88 from 160 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
88 goes into 720 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8435.318
Subtracting 704 from 720 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 88 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8435.3181
Subtract 88 from 160 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 720 by 88, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8435.31818
If we subtract 704 from 720, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 88, we get 1 and a remainder of 72.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8435.318181
Subtract 88 from 160 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 720 by 88, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8435.3181818
Subtracting 704 from 720 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 160 by 88, we get 1 and a remainder of 72.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8435.31818181
If we take 88 away from 160, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8435.31818181 with a remaining 7.2e-08.
