Let's divide 988905 by 5
We want to divide 988905 by 5.

Step 1:
5 goes into 9 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 5 from 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 5

Step 2:
If we divide 48 by 5, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 45 from 48.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 5

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 38 by 5, we get 7 and a remainder of 3.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 197.0
Deduct 35 from 38 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 5

Step 4:
5 goes into 39 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1977.0
Subtract 35 from 39 to get 4.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 40 / 5

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 40 by 5, we get 8 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19778.0
If we take 40 away from 40, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 5 / 5

On to step 6:
When dividing 5 by 5, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 197781.0
If we subtract 5 from 5, 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
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: 197781.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
5 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 197781.0
If we take 0 away from 0, 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.

The final result is 197781.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
