We divide 764861 by 1
We want to figure out the number of times 764861 can be divided by 1.

On to step 1:
1 can be fit into 7 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 7 away from 7, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 6 / 1

Advancing to step 2:
1 can be fit into 6 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 76.0
If we subtract 6 from 6, we get 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 1

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 4 by 1, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 764.0
Subtract 4 from 4 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 1

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 8 by 1, we get 8 and a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7648.0
If we take 8 away from 8, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 1

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 6 by 1, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 76486.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 6 from 6.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 1

On to step 6:
1 can be fit into 1 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 764861.0
If we take 1 away from 1, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 1, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 764861.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 764861.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 764861.0 with a remaining 0.0.
