976204 ÷ 2 
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 976204.

On to step 1:
2 goes into 9 4 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 8 from 9 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 2

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 2 fits into 17 8 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtracting 16 from 17 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 2

On to step 3:
The number 2 fits into 16 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 488.0
If we take 16 away from 16, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 2 / 2

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 2 by 2, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4881.0
Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 0 / 2

Let's proceed to step 5:
0 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48810.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 4 / 2

On to step 6:
2 goes into 4 2 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 488102.0
If we take 4 away from 4, 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.

On to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 488102.0
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.

Step 8:
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: 488102.0
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 488102.0 and a remainder of 0.0.
