Let's divide 898731 by 5
We want to figure out the number of times 898731 can be divided by 5.

Going ahead to step 1:
5 goes into 8 1 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 5 from 8 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 39 / 5

Advancing to step 2:
5 can be fit into 39 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 35 away from 39, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 5

Let's proceed to step 3:
5 goes into 48 9 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 179.0
Subtracting 45 from 48 leaves us with 3.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 5

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 37 by 5, we get 7 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1797.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 35 from 37.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 23 / 5

Step 5:
The number 5 fits into 23 4 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17974.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 20 from 23.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 5

On to step 6:
31 divided by 5 is 6 with a remainder of 1.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 179746.0
Subtract 30 from 31 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 5 fits into 10 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 179746.2
If we subtract 10 from 10, we get 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 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 179746.2
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 5 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 179746.2
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 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 quotient of the division is 179746.2, and the remainder is 0.0.
