We look at the division of 983578 by 2 
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 983578.

Going ahead to step 1:
9 divided by 2 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 8 from 9 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 2

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 2, we get 9 and a remainder of 0.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 18 from 18.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 3 / 2

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 3 by 2, we get 1 and a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 491.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 2 from 3.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 2

On to step 4:
2 goes into 15 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4917.0
If we take 14 away from 15, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 2

Moving on to step 5:
17 divided by 2 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49178.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 16 from 17.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 2

Step 6:
18 divided by 2 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 491789.0
Subtracting 18 from 18 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
0 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 491789.0
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.

Moving on to step 8:
2 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 491789.0
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.

Our division results in 491789.0 with a remaining 0.0.
