Let's divide 539908 by 5
Our goal is to divide 539908 by 5.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 5 fits into 5 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 5 from 5, we get 0.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 3 / 5

On to step 2:
5 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 39 / 5

Going ahead to step 3:
5 can be fit into 39 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 107.0
Subtract 35 from 39 to get 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 5

Going ahead to step 4:
5 goes into 49 9 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1079.0
Subtract 45 from 49 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 5

Step 5:
40 divided by 5 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10798.0
Subtract 40 from 40 to get 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 5

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 8 by 5, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 107981.0
Deduct 5 from 8 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 5 fits into 30 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107981.6
If we take 30 away from 30, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107981.6
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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 107981.6
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.

After the division, we end up with 107981.6 and a remainder of 0.0.
