We're dividing 881221 by 2 
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 881221.

On to step 1:
The number 2 fits into 8 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 8 from 8 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 2

Moving on to step 2:
2 goes into 8 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44.0
Subtract 8 from 8 to get 0.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 1 / 2

Let's proceed to step 3:
1 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 440.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 2

Advancing to step 4:
2 goes into 12 6 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4406.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 12 from 12.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 2

Going ahead to step 5:
2 goes into 2 1 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44061.0
Subtracting 2 from 2 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 2

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 1 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 440610.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
2 can be fit into 10 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 440610.5
If we subtract 10 from 10, 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 440610.5
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 440610.5
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.

The final outcome is 440610.5, with a leftover of 0.0.
