We divide 300972 by 5
Our goal is to divide 300972 by 5.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 30 / 5

Moving on to step 2:
5 goes into 30 6 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 30 from 30 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 0 / 5

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 0 by 5, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 5

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 5 fits into 9 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 601.0
If we subtract 5 from 9, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 5

On to step 5:
47 divided by 5 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6019.0
Deduct 45 from 47 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 22 / 5

On to step 6:
5 can be fit into 22 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60194.0
If we subtract 20 from 22, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
20 divided by 5 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 60194.4
Deduct 20 from 20 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 60194.4
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
5 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60194.4
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 60194.4, and the remainder is 0.0.
