We look at the division of 688699 by 45 
Let's see how many times 45 fits into 688699.

Let's proceed to step 1:
45 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 45

Going ahead to step 2:
45 goes into 68 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 45 away from 68, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 238 / 45

Let's proceed to step 3:
45 can be fit into 238 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 225 from 238 leaves us with 13.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 136 / 45

Going ahead to step 4:
136 divided by 45 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 153.0
If we subtract 135 from 136, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 19 / 45

On to step 5:
45 goes into 19 0 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1530.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 0 from 19.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 199 / 45

Going ahead to step 6:
45 can be fit into 199 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 15304.0
Deduct 180 from 199 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 7:
190 divided by 45 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15304.4
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 180 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 45, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15304.42
Deduct 90 from 100 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 45 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15304.422
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 90 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 15304.422, and the remainder is 0.001.
