We divide 232709 by 18
We're looking to find how many times 18 goes into 232709.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 18, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 18

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 23 by 18, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 18 from 23 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 18

Moving on to step 3:
52 divided by 18 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 36 from 52 and we're left with 16.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 167 / 18

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 167 by 18, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 129.0
Subtract 162 from 167 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 50 / 18

On to step 5:
18 can be fit into 50 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1292.0
If we take 36 away from 50, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 149 / 18

Advancing to step 6:
18 goes into 149 8 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12928.0
If we take 144 away from 149, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 50 by 18, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12928.2
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 36 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 140 by 18, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12928.27
If we take 126 away from 140, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
18 goes into 140 7 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12928.277
Subtract 126 from 140 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12928.277 with a balance of 0.0014.
