8709 ÷ 5 
Our goal is to divide 8709 by 5.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 5, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 5 from 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 5

Going ahead to step 2:
37 divided by 5 is 7 with a remainder of 2.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 35 from 37 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 20 / 5

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 20 by 5, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 174.0
If we subtract 20 from 20, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 9 / 5

On to step 4:
When dividing 9 by 5, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1741.0
Subtracting 5 from 9 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 5:
5 can be fit into 40 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1741.8
If we take 40 away from 40, 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.

On to step 6:
5 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: 1741.8
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 7:
The number 5 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1741.8
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 1741.8 with a balance of 0.0.
