978723 ÷ 9 
We're looking to find how many times 9 goes into 978723.

Going ahead to step 1:
9 divided by 9 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 9 from 9, we get 0.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 7 / 9

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 7 by 9, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 9

Moving on to step 3:
The number 9 fits into 78 8 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 108.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 72 from 78.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 67 / 9

On to step 4:
The number 9 fits into 67 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1087.0
Subtract 63 from 67 to get 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 9

Going ahead to step 5:
42 divided by 9 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10874.0
Deduct 36 from 42 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 63 / 9

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 9 fits into 63 7 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 108747.0
Subtract 63 from 63 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
0 divided by 9 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 108747.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 9, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 108747.0
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.

The quotient of the division is 108747.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
