678983 ÷ 5 
We want to divide 678983 by 5.

Step 1:
The number 5 fits into 6 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 5 from 6 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 5

On to step 2:
The number 5 fits into 17 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 15 from 17 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 5

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 28 by 5, we get 5 and a remainder of 3.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 135.0
Subtracting 25 from 28 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 39 / 5

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 39 by 5, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1357.0
Deduct 35 from 39 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 5

On to step 5:
5 can be fit into 48 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13579.0
Subtract 45 from 48 to get 3.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 33 / 5

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 5 fits into 33 6 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 135796.0
If we take 30 away from 33, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 30 by 5, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 135796.6
If we take 30 away from 30, 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 5 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 135796.6
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

On to step 9:
5 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 135796.6
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.

After the division, we end up with 135796.6 and a remainder of 0.0.
