860971 ÷ 88 
We want to divide 860971 by 88.

Step 1:
The number 88 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 88

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 86 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 86.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 86 after subtracting 0 from 86.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 86, then repeat: 860 / 88

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 860 by 88, we get 9 with a remainder of 68.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 792 from 860.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 689 / 88

On to step 4:
If we divide 689 by 88, we get 7 and a remainder of 73.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 97.0
If we subtract 616 from 689, we get 73.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 737 / 88

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 737 by 88, we get 8 and a remainder of 33.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 978.0
If we take 704 away from 737, we end up with 33.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 331 / 88

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 331 by 88, we get 3 and a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9783.0
If we take 264 away from 331, we end up with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
670 divided by 88 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9783.7
If we subtract 616 from 670, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
88 goes into 540 6 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9783.76
Subtracting 528 from 540 leaves us 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.

Step 9:
When dividing 120 by 88, we get 1 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9783.761
If we subtract 88 from 120, 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 10:
88 can be fit into 320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 9783.7613
Deduct 264 from 320 and we're left 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 11:
If we divide 560 by 88, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9783.76136
If we take 528 away from 560, we end up 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.

Step 12:
88 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9783.761363
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.

Step 13:
88 can be fit into 560 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9783.7613636
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
88 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 56.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9783.76136363
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.

Our division results in 9783.76136363 with a remaining 5.6e-08.
