496789 ÷ 9 
Our goal is to divide 496789 by 9.

On to step 1:
9 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 9

Advancing to step 2:
9 can be fit into 49 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 45 from 49.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 46 / 9

Advancing to step 3:
9 can be fit into 46 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 55.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 45 from 46.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 9

Going ahead to step 4:
17 divided by 9 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 551.0
If we take 9 away from 17, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 88 / 9

On to step 5:
9 can be fit into 88 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5519.0
Subtracting 81 from 88 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 79 / 9

Let's proceed to step 6:
79 divided by 9 is 8 with a remainder of 7.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55198.0
If we take 72 away from 79, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 70 by 9, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55198.7
Subtract 63 from 70 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 70 by 9, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 55198.77
Subtracting 63 from 70 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 55198.77, with a leftover of 0.007.
