We divide 461159 by 9
Our goal is to divide 461159 by 9.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 9 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 9

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 46 by 9, we get 5 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 45 from 46.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 9

Moving on to step 3:
11 divided by 9 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Deduct 9 from 11 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 9

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 21 by 9, we get 2 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 512.0
If we subtract 18 from 21, we get 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 9

Let's proceed to step 5:
35 divided by 9 is 3 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5123.0
Subtract 27 from 35 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 89 / 9

Advancing to step 6:
9 can be fit into 89 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 51239.0
If we take 81 away from 89, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 7:
9 goes into 80 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51239.8
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 80 by 9, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 51239.88
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 51239.88, with a leftover of 0.008.
