We're dividing 689588 by 2 
We want to figure out the number of times 689588 can be divided by 2.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 2, we get 3 and a remainder of 0.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 6 from 6 and we're left with 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 2

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 8 by 2, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtract 8 from 8 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 2

On to step 3:
9 divided by 2 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 344.0
Subtracting 8 from 9 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 2

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 15 by 2, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3447.0
Subtracting 14 from 15 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 2

On to step 5:
2 goes into 18 9 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34479.0
If we subtract 18 from 18, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 2

Let's proceed to step 6:
2 goes into 8 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 344794.0
If we subtract 8 from 8, 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.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 344794.0
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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 344794.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 344794.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
