Let's divide 978895 by 8
Our goal is to divide 978895 by 8.

Step 1:
The number 8 fits into 9 1 times, leaving 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.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 8

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 8, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 16 away from 17, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 8

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 18 by 8, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 122.0
Subtracting 16 from 18 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 8

Step 4:
If we divide 28 by 8, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1223.0
If we take 24 away from 28, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 8

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 8 fits into 49 6 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12236.0
Deduct 48 from 49 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 8

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 15 by 8, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 122361.0
Subtract 8 from 15 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
70 divided by 8 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 122361.8
Subtract 64 from 70 to 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 goes into 60 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 122361.87
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 40 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 122361.875
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.

Going ahead to 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: 122361.875
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
0 divided by 8 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 122361.875
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.

The quotient of the division is 122361.875, and the remainder is 0.0.
