We divide 263540 by 18
We're looking to find how many times 18 goes into 263540.

Step 1:
18 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 18

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 26 by 18, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 18 away from 26, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 83 / 18

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 83 by 18, we get 4 with a remainder of 11.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 72 from 83.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 115 / 18

Going ahead to step 4:
18 can be fit into 115 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 146.0
Deduct 108 from 115 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 18

Moving on to step 5:
74 divided by 18 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1464.0
Subtract 72 from 74 to get 2.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 20 / 18

Advancing to step 6:
18 can be fit into 20 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14641.0
Subtract 18 from 20 to 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.

On to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 18, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14641.1
Deduct 18 from 20 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
18 goes into 20 1 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14641.11
Deduct 18 from 20 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 14641.11 with a balance of 0.002.
