We divide 467988 by 8
We're looking to find how many times 8 goes into 467988.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 8 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 8

Advancing to step 2:
The number 8 fits into 46 5 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 40 from 46, we get 6.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 67 / 8

On to step 3:
8 goes into 67 8 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Deduct 64 from 67 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 8

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 39 by 8, we get 4 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 584.0
If we take 32 away from 39, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 8

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 8 fits into 78 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5849.0
Subtracting 72 from 78 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 8

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 8 fits into 68 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58498.0
If we take 64 away from 68, we end up 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.

On to step 7:
When dividing 40 by 8, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58498.5
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 8:
0 divided by 8 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 58498.5
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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.

On to step 9:
The number 8 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58498.5
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 58498.5, and the remainder is 0.0.
