Let's divide 884959 by 18
We want to figure out the number of times 884959 can be divided by 18.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 18 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 88 / 18

Advancing to step 2:
18 goes into 88 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 72 from 88 to get 16.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 164 / 18

Advancing to step 3:
164 divided by 18 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 162 from 164.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 18

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 29 by 18, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 491.0
Subtracting 18 from 29 leaves us with 11.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 115 / 18

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 115 by 18, we get 6 and a remainder of 7.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4916.0
Subtracting 108 from 115 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 79 / 18

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 79 by 18, we get 4 and a remainder of 7.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49164.0
If we subtract 72 from 79, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 18 fits into 70 3 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49164.3
Subtracting 54 from 70 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
18 goes into 160 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 49164.38
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
18 can be fit into 160 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49164.388
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 49164.388 with a balance of 0.0016.
