We're dividing 283901 by 9 
We're looking to find how many times 9 goes into 283901.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 9 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 9

Moving on to step 2:
9 goes into 28 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 27 from 28 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 13 / 9

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 13 by 9, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we take 9 away from 13, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 9

Let's proceed to step 4:
49 divided by 9 is 5 with a remainder of 4.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 315.0
Subtract 45 from 49 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 9

On to step 5:
The number 9 fits into 40 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3154.0
If we take 36 away from 40, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 41 / 9

Moving on to step 6:
The number 9 fits into 41 4 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31544.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 36 from 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
9 can be fit into 50 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31544.5
Subtracting 45 from 50 leaves us 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 8:
The number 9 fits into 50 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31544.55
If we take 45 away from 50, 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.

After the division, we end up with 31544.55 and a remainder of 0.005.
