Here's how to complete the long division for $75 \div 5$ :

Divide the first digit of the dividend (7) by the divisor (5).
$7 \div 5 = 1$ with a remainder. The 1 is already written above the 7.
Multiply the quotient digit (1) by the divisor (5).
$1 \times 5 = 5$ . The 5 is already written below the 7.
Subtract 5 from 7.
$7 - 5 = 2$ . The 2 is already written below the line.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend (5) next to the 2, forming 25.
Divide 25 by the divisor (5).
$25 \div 5 = 5$ . Write 5 above the 5 in the quotient.
Multiply the new quotient digit (5) by the divisor (5).
$5 \times 5 = 25$ . Write 25 below the 25.
Subtract 25 from 25.
$25 - 25 = 0$ .
$\begin{array}{r} 15 \\ 5 \overline{)75} \\ -5 \downarrow \\ \hline 25 \\ -25 \\ \hline 0 \end{array}$
The result of the division is 15.
