We look at the division of 471868 by 9 
We want to divide 471868 by 9.

Let's proceed to step 1:
9 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 47 / 9

Let's proceed to step 2:
47 divided by 9 is 5 with a remainder of 2.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 45 from 47 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 9

On to step 3:
21 divided by 9 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we take 18 away from 21, we end up with 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 9

On to step 4:
9 goes into 38 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 524.0
Deduct 36 from 38 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 9

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 9 fits into 26 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5242.0
Subtract 18 from 26 to get 8.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 88 / 9

Moving on to step 6:
The number 9 fits into 88 9 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 52429.0
If we subtract 81 from 88, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
70 divided by 9 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 52429.7
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 63 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 9 fits into 70 7 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 52429.77
If we take 63 away from 70, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

The final result is 52429.77 with a remainder of 0.007.
