We look at the division of 897178 by 10 
We want to figure out the number of times 897178 can be divided by 10.

On to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 10, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 10

Moving on to step 2:
The number 10 fits into 89 8 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 80 from 89 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 10

Going ahead to step 3:
10 goes into 97 9 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 89.0
Subtract 90 from 97 to get 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 10

On to step 4:
The number 10 fits into 71 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 897.0
Deduct 70 from 71 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 10

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 10 fits into 17 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8971.0
If we take 10 away from 17, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 78 / 10

On to step 6:
10 goes into 78 7 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 89717.0
Deduct 70 from 78 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 80 by 10, we get 8 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 89717.8
Deduct 80 from 80 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:
10 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 89717.8
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 10, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 89717.8
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.

Our division results in 89717.8 with a remaining 0.0.
