Let's divide 502724 by 8
We want to figure out the number of times 502724 can be divided by 8.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 8 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 50 / 8

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 50 by 8, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 48 from 50.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 8

Step 3:
22 divided by 8 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 62.0
Deduct 16 from 22 and we're left with 6.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 67 / 8

On to step 4:
67 divided by 8 is 8 with a remainder of 3.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 628.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 64 from 67.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 32 / 8

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 32 by 8, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6284.0
If we subtract 32 from 32, we get 0.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 8

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 4 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 62840.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 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:
If we divide 40 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 62840.5
Subtracting 40 from 40 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 62840.5
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 9:
When dividing 0 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 62840.5
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.

Our division results in 62840.5 with a remaining 0.0.
