248977 ÷ 8 
We want to divide 248977 by 8.

Moving on to step 1:
8 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 8

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 24 by 8, we get 3 and a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 24 from 24 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 8

Advancing to step 3:
8 can be fit into 8 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 8 from 8.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 8

Going ahead to step 4:
8 can be fit into 9 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 311.0
Subtracting 8 from 9 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 8

On to step 5:
If we divide 17 by 8, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3112.0
Subtracting 16 from 17 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 8

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 17 by 8, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31122.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 16 from 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 8 fits into 10 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31122.1
Subtracting 8 from 10 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 20 by 8, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31122.12
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 16 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
8 can be fit into 40 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31122.125
If we take 40 away from 40, 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 10:
If we divide 0 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31122.125
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
8 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31122.125
If we take 0 away from 0, 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.

The final outcome is 31122.125, with a leftover of 0.0.
