Let's divide 236877 by 5
Our goal is to divide 236877 by 5.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 5 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 5

Moving on to step 2:
5 goes into 23 4 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 20 from 23, we get 3.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 36 / 5

On to step 3:
36 divided by 5 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 47.0
If we subtract 35 from 36, we get 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 5

Let's proceed to step 4:
5 can be fit into 18 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 473.0
Deduct 15 from 18 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 37 / 5

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 5 fits into 37 7 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4737.0
Subtract 35 from 37 to get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 5

Advancing to step 6:
5 goes into 27 5 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47375.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 25 from 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 5, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47375.4
Deduct 20 from 20 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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47375.4
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.

On to step 9:
5 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47375.4
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 47375.4 with a balance of 0.0.
