We're dividing 280455 by 9 
We're looking to find how many times 9 goes into 280455.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 9, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 9

Going ahead to step 2:
9 goes into 28 3 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 27 from 28 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 10 / 9

Advancing to step 3:
9 goes into 10 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31.0
Deduct 9 from 10 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 9

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 14 by 9, we get 1 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 311.0
Deduct 9 from 14 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 9

Let's proceed to step 5:
9 can be fit into 55 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3116.0
Subtract 54 from 55 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 9

On to step 6:
15 divided by 9 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31161.0
If we take 9 away from 15, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 60 by 9, we get 6 and a remainder of 6.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31161.6
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 54 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 60 by 9, we get 6 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 31161.66
If we subtract 54 from 60, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 31161.66 with a balance of 0.006.
