24478 ÷ 5 
We want to figure out the number of times 24478 can be divided by 5.

Moving on to step 1:
5 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 5

Step 2:
24 divided by 5 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 20 away from 24, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 5

Step 3:
5 can be fit into 44 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 40 away from 44, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 5

Advancing to step 4:
5 goes into 47 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 489.0
If we take 45 away from 47, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 5

Step 5:
5 can be fit into 28 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4895.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 25 from 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
5 can be fit into 30 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4895.6
If we take 30 away from 30, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
0 divided by 5 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4895.6
Deduct 0 from 0 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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 5 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4895.6
Deduct 0 from 0 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.

After the division, we end up with 4895.6 and a remainder of 0.0.
