987711 ÷ 8 
We want to figure out the number of times 987711 can be divided by 8.

Step 1:
9 divided by 8 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 8 from 9, we get 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 8

On to step 2:
8 goes into 18 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 16 away from 18, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 8

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 27 by 8, we get 3 with a remainder of 3.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 123.0
If we subtract 24 from 27, we get 3.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 37 / 8

Advancing to step 4:
The number 8 fits into 37 4 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1234.0
Subtracting 32 from 37 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 8

On to step 5:
If we divide 51 by 8, we get 6 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12346.0
Subtracting 48 from 51 leaves us with 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 8

Step 6:
If we divide 31 by 8, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 123463.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 24 from 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 70 by 8, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 123463.8
If we subtract 64 from 70, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
8 can be fit into 60 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 123463.87
If we subtract 56 from 60, we get 4.
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:
If we divide 40 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 123463.875
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.

Step 10:
0 divided by 8 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 123463.875
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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 0 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 123463.875
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 123463.875, and the remainder is 0.0.
