488779 ÷ 5 
Our goal is to divide 488779 by 5.

On to step 1:
The number 5 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 5

Step 2:
When dividing 48 by 5, we get 9 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 45 from 48 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 5

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 38 by 5, we get 7 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 97.0
Deduct 35 from 38 and we're left with 3.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 37 / 5

Advancing to step 4:
5 can be fit into 37 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 977.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 35 from 37.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 5

On to step 5:
When dividing 27 by 5, we get 5 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9775.0
If we subtract 25 from 27, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 5

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 29 by 5, we get 5 with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 97755.0
If we take 25 away from 29, 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.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 5 fits into 40 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 97755.8
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 97755.8
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 97755.8
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.

After the division, we end up with 97755.8 and a remainder of 0.0.
