489842 divided by 5 
Let's see how many times 5 fits into 489842.

Step 1:
5 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 5

Step 2:
5 can be fit into 48 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 45 away from 48, we end up with 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 5

Step 3:
When dividing 39 by 5, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 97.0
Subtract 35 from 39 to get 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 5

Advancing to step 4:
48 divided by 5 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 979.0
If we take 45 away from 48, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 5

Step 5:
When dividing 34 by 5, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9796.0
Deduct 30 from 34 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 5

Step 6:
5 can be fit into 42 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 97968.0
If we subtract 40 from 42, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 5, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 97968.4
If we take 20 away from 20, 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 8:
The number 5 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 97968.4
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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 97968.4
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 97968.4, with a leftover of 0.0.
