204531 divided by 5 
We want to divide 204531 by 5.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 5

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 20 by 5, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 20 from 20, we get 0.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 5

Advancing to step 3:
The number 5 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 45 / 5

Moving on to step 4:
45 divided by 5 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 409.0
If we take 45 away from 45, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 3 / 5

Advancing to step 5:
The number 5 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4090.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 5

Moving on to step 6:
The number 5 fits into 31 6 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40906.0
Subtracting 30 from 31 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 7:
10 divided by 5 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 40906.2
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 10 from 10.
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:
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: 40906.2
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.

Moving on to step 9:
0 divided by 5 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40906.2
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.

The final result is 40906.2 with a remainder of 0.0.
