We look at the division of 987512 by 5 
Our goal is to divide 987512 by 5.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 5 fits into 9 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 5 from 9 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 5

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 5, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 45 from 48, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 5

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 37 by 5, we get 7 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 197.0
Deduct 35 from 37 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 5

Let's proceed to step 4:
5 goes into 25 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1975.0
Subtract 25 from 25 to get 0.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 5

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 1 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 19750.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 5

Advancing to step 6:
12 divided by 5 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 197502.0
Deduct 10 from 12 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 5, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 197502.4
Subtract 20 from 20 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 197502.4
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.

Advancing to step 9:
0 divided by 5 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 197502.4
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 result is 197502.4 with a remainder of 0.0.
