We're dividing 88205456 by 178 
We want to divide 88205456 by 178.

Step 1:
When dividing 8 by 178, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 178

Step 2:
88 divided by 178 is 0 with a remainder of 88.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 88 after subtracting 0 from 88.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 88 and continue with: 882 / 178

Advancing to step 3:
178 goes into 882 4 times with a remainder of 170.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 712 away from 882, we end up with 170.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 170, then repeat: 1700 / 178

Step 4:
The number 178 fits into 1700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 98.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 49.0
Subtract 1602 from 1700 to get 98.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 98, then carry on: 985 / 178

Moving on to step 5:
985 divided by 178 is 5 with a remainder of 95.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 495.0
The remainder is 95 after subtracting 890 from 985.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 95 and continue with: 954 / 178

Step 6:
954 divided by 178 is 5 with a remainder of 64.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4955.0
Subtracting 890 from 954 leaves us with 64.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 64 and continue with: 645 / 178

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 645 by 178, we get 3 and a remainder of 111.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49553.0
Subtract 534 from 645 to get 111.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 111, then repeat: 1116 / 178

Step 8:
178 can be fit into 1116 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 495536.0
Deduct 1068 from 1116 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.

Moving on to step 9:
178 goes into 480 2 times with a remainder of 124.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 495536.2
The remainder is 124 after subtracting 356 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 1240 by 178, we get 6 with a remainder of 172.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 495536.26
If we subtract 1068 from 1240, we get 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 1720 by 178, we get 9 and a remainder of 118.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 495536.269
If we take 1602 away from 1720, we end up with 118.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1180, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 1180 by 178, we get 6 and a remainder of 112.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 495536.2696
The remainder is 112 after subtracting 1068 from 1180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
178 goes into 1120 6 times with a remainder of 52.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 495536.26966
Subtract 1068 from 1120 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Our division results in 495536.26966 with a remaining 5.2e-05.
