Let's divide 500888 by 1
Our goal is to divide 500888 by 1.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 1, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 5 from 5 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 0 / 1

Step 2:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 0 / 1

Advancing to step 3:
0 divided by 1 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 500.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 1

Step 4:
1 goes into 8 8 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5008.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 8 from 8.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 1

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 8 by 1, we get 8 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50088.0
Subtract 8 from 8 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 1

Advancing to step 6:
8 divided by 1 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 500888.0
If we take 8 away from 8, 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 7:
If we divide 0 by 1, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 500888.0
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.

Moving on to step 8:
0 divided by 1 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 500888.0
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 500888.0 with a balance of 0.0.
