We're dividing 198959 by 8 
Our goal is to divide 198959 by 8.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 19 / 8

On to step 2:
19 divided by 8 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 16 from 19 to get 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 8

Moving on to step 3:
8 can be fit into 38 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 32 from 38 and we're left with 6.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 69 / 8

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 69 by 8, we get 8 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 248.0
If we subtract 64 from 69, we get 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 8

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 8 fits into 55 6 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2486.0
If we take 48 away from 55, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 79 / 8

Step 6:
8 can be fit into 79 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24869.0
Subtracting 72 from 79 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 70 by 8, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24869.8
If we subtract 64 from 70, we 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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 8 fits into 60 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 24869.87
Subtract 56 from 60 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 8, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24869.875
Deduct 40 from 40 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 10:
The number 8 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 24869.875
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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.

On to step 11:
8 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24869.875
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 24869.875 with a remaining 0.0.
