We divide 509968 by 8
We're looking to find how many times 8 goes into 509968.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 8, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 50 / 8

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 50 by 8, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 48 from 50, we get 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 8

Let's proceed to step 3:
8 can be fit into 29 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we take 24 away from 29, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 59 / 8

Step 4:
59 divided by 8 is 7 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 637.0
If we subtract 56 from 59, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 36 / 8

Let's proceed to step 5:
8 can be fit into 36 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6374.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 32 from 36.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 8

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 8 fits into 48 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63746.0
Subtract 48 from 48 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.

Step 7:
8 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63746.0
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.

Step 8:
0 divided by 8 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 63746.0
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 63746.0 with a remaining 0.0.
