On to step 1:
The number 2 fits into 9 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 8 from 9 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 2

Moving on to step 2:
17 divided by 2 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtract 16 from 17 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 2

On to step 3:
2 goes into 18 9 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result.

If we subtract 18 from 18, we get 0.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 5 / 2

Advancing to step 4:
The number 2 fits into 5 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4892.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 4 from 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 2

Advancing to step 5:
The number 2 fits into 12 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 48926.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 12 from 12.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 0 / 2

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 489260.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 489260.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
2 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 489260.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 489260.0 with a remaining 0.0.
