We look at the division of 261823 by 9 
Our goal is to divide 261823 by 9.

Step 1:
9 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 9

Going ahead to step 2:
26 divided by 9 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 18 from 26 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 9

Let's proceed to step 3:
81 divided by 9 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 81 from 81 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 9

Let's proceed to step 4:
9 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 290.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 82 / 9

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 9 fits into 82 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2909.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 81 from 82.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 13 / 9

On to step 6:
9 goes into 13 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29091.0
Subtracting 9 from 13 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
9 goes into 40 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29091.4
Deduct 36 from 40 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 8:
40 divided by 9 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29091.44
If we subtract 36 from 40, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 29091.44, with a leftover of 0.004.
