Let's divide 618538 by 5
We want to figure out the number of times 618538 can be divided by 5.

On to step 1:
5 goes into 6 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 5 from 6, we get 1.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 5

Moving on to step 2:
5 can be fit into 11 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 10 from 11 to get 1.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 18 / 5

On to step 3:
The number 5 fits into 18 3 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 123.0
Deduct 15 from 18 and we're left with 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 5

Going ahead to step 4:
5 can be fit into 35 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1237.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 35 from 35.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 3 / 5

Going ahead to step 5:
3 divided by 5 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12370.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 5

Advancing to step 6:
38 divided by 5 is 7 with a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 123707.0
Subtracting 35 from 38 leaves us 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:
30 divided by 5 is 6 with a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 123707.6
Subtract 30 from 30 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 8:
The number 5 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 123707.6
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
5 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 123707.6
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 final result is 123707.6 with a remainder of 0.0.
