We divide 854973 by 18
We want to figure out the number of times 854973 can be divided by 18.

Step 1:
8 divided by 18 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 85 / 18

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 85 by 18, we get 4 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 72 from 85.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 134 / 18

Going ahead to step 3:
134 divided by 18 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47.0
If we subtract 126 from 134, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 18

Step 4:
18 can be fit into 89 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 474.0
If we subtract 72 from 89, we get 17.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 177 / 18

Step 5:
If we divide 177 by 18, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4749.0
If we subtract 162 from 177, we get 15.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 153 / 18

Moving on to step 6:
The number 18 fits into 153 8 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47498.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 144 from 153.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 90 by 18, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47498.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 90 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
0 divided by 18 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47498.5
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
18 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47498.5
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

After the division, we end up with 47498.5 and a remainder of 0.0.
