Let's divide 509288 by 8
We want to divide 509288 by 8.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 50 / 8

Moving on to step 2:
The number 8 fits into 50 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 48 from 50.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 8

On to step 3:
The number 8 fits into 29 3 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 24 from 29, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 8

Advancing to step 4:
52 divided by 8 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 636.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 48 from 52.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 8

Going ahead to step 5:
8 can be fit into 48 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6366.0
Deduct 48 from 48 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 8

Step 6:
If we divide 8 by 8, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63661.0
Subtract 8 from 8 to 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 8 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 63661.0
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63661.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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.

Our division results in 63661.0 with a remaining 0.0.
