We're dividing 505731 by 1 
We want to figure out the number of times 505731 can be divided by 1.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 1 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 5 from 5, we get 0.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 0 / 1

Step 2:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 1

Advancing to step 3:
1 goes into 5 5 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 505.0
If we subtract 5 from 5, we get 0.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 7 / 1

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 7 by 1, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5057.0
If we take 7 away from 7, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 3 / 1

Step 5:
The number 1 fits into 3 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50573.0
If we subtract 3 from 3, we get 0.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 1

On to step 6:
If we divide 1 by 1, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 505731.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 1 from 1.
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 7:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 505731.0
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.

Step 8:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 505731.0
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.

The final outcome is 505731.0, with a leftover of 0.0.
