257469 ÷ 18 
We're looking to find how many times 18 goes into 257469.

On to step 1:
18 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 18

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 18, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 18 from 25, we get 7.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 77 / 18

On to step 3:
When dividing 77 by 18, we get 4 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 72 from 77 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 18

Going ahead to step 4:
18 goes into 54 3 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 143.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 54 from 54.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 6 / 18

On to step 5:
18 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1430.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 69 / 18

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 18 fits into 69 3 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14303.0
If we take 54 away from 69, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 18 fits into 150 8 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14303.8
If we subtract 144 from 150, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 18 fits into 60 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14303.83
Subtracting 54 from 60 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 60 by 18, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14303.833
If we subtract 54 from 60, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14303.833 and a remainder of 0.0006.
