Let's divide 256887 by 9
Our goal is to divide 256887 by 9.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 9 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 9

On to step 2:
25 divided by 9 is 2 with a remainder of 7.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 18 from 25 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 76 / 9

Going ahead to step 3:
9 can be fit into 76 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we take 72 away from 76, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 9

Step 4:
The number 9 fits into 48 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 285.0
Subtract 45 from 48 to get 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 9

On to step 5:
38 divided by 9 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2854.0
Subtract 36 from 38 to get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 9

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 9 fits into 27 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28543.0
If we take 27 away from 27, 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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 9, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 28543.0
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:
9 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28543.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 28543.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
