We divide 996456 by 18
Let's see how many times 18 fits into 996456.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 18, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 18

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 18 fits into 99 5 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 90 from 99.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 18

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 96 by 18, we get 5 with a remainder of 6.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55.0
Subtracting 90 from 96 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 64 / 18

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 64 by 18, we get 3 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 553.0
Subtracting 54 from 64 leaves us with 10.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 105 / 18

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 105 by 18, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5535.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 90 from 105.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 156 / 18

Advancing to step 6:
18 can be fit into 156 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55358.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 144 from 156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 120 by 18, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 55358.6
Deduct 108 from 120 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
18 can be fit into 120 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55358.66
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 108 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 55358.66 with a balance of 0.012.
