We divide 503688 by 88
We want to figure out the number of times 503688 can be divided by 88.

On to step 1:
The number 88 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 50 / 88

Step 2:
When dividing 50 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 503 / 88

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 88 fits into 503 5 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 440 from 503 leaves us with 63.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 63 and repeat the process: 636 / 88

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 636 by 88, we get 7 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we subtract 616 from 636, we get 20.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 208 / 88

Step 5:
If we divide 208 by 88, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 572.0
If we subtract 176 from 208, we get 32.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 328 / 88

Step 6:
When dividing 328 by 88, we get 3 with a remainder of 64.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5723.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 264 from 328.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 640 by 88, we get 7 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5723.7
Deduct 616 from 640 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 240 by 88, we get 2 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5723.72
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 176 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 640 by 88, we get 7 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5723.727
If we subtract 616 from 640, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
88 goes into 240 2 times with a remainder of 64.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5723.7272
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 176 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
640 divided by 88 is 7 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5723.72727
Deduct 616 from 640 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 240 by 88, we get 2 and a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5723.727272
If we take 176 away from 240, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 640 by 88, we get 7 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5723.7272727
If we subtract 616 from 640, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
88 goes into 240 2 times with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5723.72727272
Subtract 176 from 240 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5723.72727272 with a balance of 6.4e-08.
