Let's divide 608579 by 1
We want to figure out the number of times 608579 can be divided by 1.

On to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 1, we get 6 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 6 from 6.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 0 / 1

Advancing to step 2:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 1

On to step 3:
1 goes into 8 8 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 608.0
If we subtract 8 from 8, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 5 / 1

Let's proceed to step 4:
1 goes into 5 5 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6085.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 5 from 5.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 7 / 1

Advancing to step 5:
7 divided by 1 is 7 with a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60857.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 7 from 7.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 1

On to step 6:
When dividing 9 by 1, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 608579.0
Subtract 9 from 9 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 608579.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 608579.0
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.

The final result is 608579.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
