248858 ÷ 9 
We want to figure out the number of times 248858 can be divided by 9.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 9, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 9

Moving on to step 2:
The number 9 fits into 24 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 18 from 24 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 9

Let's proceed to step 3:
9 can be fit into 68 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 63 from 68.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 9

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 58 by 9, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 276.0
If we subtract 54 from 58, we get 4.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 9

Moving on to step 5:
45 divided by 9 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2765.0
Deduct 45 from 45 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 9

Advancing to step 6:
The number 9 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27650.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 80 by 9, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27650.8
Subtract 72 from 80 to get 8.
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:
When dividing 80 by 9, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27650.88
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 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 quotient of the division is 27650.88, and the remainder is 0.008.
