We divide 612969 by 8
We want to figure out the number of times 612969 can be divided by 8.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 61 / 8

Moving on to step 2:
61 divided by 8 is 7 with a remainder of 5.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 56 from 61 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 8

Advancing to step 3:
52 divided by 8 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 76.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 48 from 52.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 8

Step 4:
49 divided by 8 is 6 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 766.0
Subtracting 48 from 49 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 8

On to step 5:
The number 8 fits into 16 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7662.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 16 from 16.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 9 / 8

Going ahead to step 6:
8 goes into 9 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 76621.0
Subtract 8 from 9 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 8, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 76621.1
Subtracting 8 from 10 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
8 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 76621.12
If we take 16 away from 20, 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
40 divided by 8 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 76621.125
Deduct 40 from 40 and we're left 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.

On 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: 76621.125
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 0 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 76621.125
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.

The quotient of the division is 76621.125, and the remainder is 0.0.
