608496 divided by 5 
We want to figure out the number of times 608496 can be divided by 5.

Let's proceed to step 1:
6 divided by 5 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 5 from 6 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 10 / 5

Step 2:
When dividing 10 by 5, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 10 from 10.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 5

Step 3:
If we divide 8 by 5, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 121.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 5 from 8.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 5

Advancing to step 4:
5 goes into 34 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1216.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 30 from 34.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 5

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 49 by 5, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 12169.0
Subtracting 45 from 49 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 5

Advancing to step 6:
46 divided by 5 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 121699.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 45 from 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
5 goes into 10 2 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 121699.2
Deduct 10 from 10 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 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: 121699.2
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.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 121699.2
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 outcome is 121699.2, with a leftover of 0.0.
