We divide 966982 by 8
Let's see how many times 8 fits into 966982.

On to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 8, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 8 from 9 to get 1.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 8

Let's proceed to step 2:
16 divided by 8 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 16 from 16 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 6 / 8

Step 3:
8 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 120.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 69 / 8

Let's proceed to step 4:
69 divided by 8 is 8 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1208.0
Subtract 64 from 69 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 8

Moving on to step 5:
8 goes into 58 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12087.0
If we subtract 56 from 58, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 8

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 22 by 8, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 120872.0
Subtract 16 from 22 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 7:
8 goes into 60 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 120872.7
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 120872.75
If we subtract 40 from 40, 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 9:
The number 8 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 120872.75
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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 120872.75
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.

Our division results in 120872.75 with a remaining 0.0.
