We look at the division of 642704 by 1 
We want to figure out the number of times 642704 can be divided by 1.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 1, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 6 from 6 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 1

Moving on to step 2:
1 goes into 4 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 64.0
If we subtract 4 from 4, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 1

Let's proceed to step 3:
2 divided by 1 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 642.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 2 from 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 7 / 1

Going ahead to step 4:
1 can be fit into 7 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6427.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 7 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 0 / 1

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 64270.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 1

Going ahead to step 6:
4 divided by 1 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 642704.0
Subtract 4 from 4 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.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 642704.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 1 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 642704.0
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.

The quotient of the division is 642704.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
