Let's divide 499891 by 5
We want to figure out the number of times 499891 can be divided by 5.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 5

Step 2:
49 divided by 5 is 9 with a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 45 from 49.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 5

On to step 3:
5 goes into 49 9 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 99.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 45 from 49.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 5

Advancing to step 4:
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: 999.0
Subtract 45 from 48 to get 3.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 39 / 5

Going ahead to step 5:
5 goes into 39 7 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9997.0
Deduct 35 from 39 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 41 / 5

Advancing to step 6:
The number 5 fits into 41 8 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 99978.0
Deduct 40 from 41 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:
If we divide 10 by 5, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 99978.2
Subtracting 10 from 10 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.

On to step 8:
5 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 99978.2
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.

On to step 9:
The number 5 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 99978.2
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 99978.2 with a balance of 0.0.
