We're dividing 494421 by 88 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 88 in 494421.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 88

Let's proceed to step 2:
88 can be fit into 49 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 494 / 88

Let's proceed to step 3:
88 goes into 494 5 times with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 440 away from 494, we end up with 54.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 54 and repeat the process: 544 / 88

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 544 by 88, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56.0
Subtracting 528 from 544 leaves us with 16.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 162 / 88

Step 5:
When dividing 162 by 88, we get 1 with a remainder of 74.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 561.0
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 88 from 162.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 741 / 88

Let's proceed to step 6:
88 goes into 741 8 times with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5618.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 704 from 741.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
88 can be fit into 370 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5618.4
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 352 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 180 by 88, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5618.42
If we subtract 176 from 180, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 88, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5618.42
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 88 fits into 400 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5618.4204
Subtracting 352 from 400 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
88 goes into 480 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5618.42045
Subtract 440 from 480 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 12:
88 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5618.420454
Subtract 352 from 400 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
480 divided by 88 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5618.4204545
If we subtract 440 from 480, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
88 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5618.42045454
If we subtract 352 from 400, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5618.42045454 with a remaining 4.8e-08.
