(42S) Integer Quotient
For large input, eg 888,888,888,888 the 42S snippet

5 / IP

does not return the correct integer quotient.

I have a programme to do the calculation correctly without disturbing the stack but believe it is inefficient.

Could someone suggest a more efficient programme that leaves the stack intact?

Code:
0.    { 29-Byte Prgm }
 1.    LBL “IQT5”
 2.    R↑
 3.    STO 01
 4.    R↓
 5.    STO 02
 6.    5
 7.    MOD
 8.    +/-
 9.    RCL+ 02
 10.    5
 11.    /
 12.    R↑
 13.    X<> 01
 14.    R↓
 15.    END
