We're dividing 407969 by 9 
We want to divide 407969 by 9.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 9 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 9

Step 2:
9 goes into 40 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 36 from 40 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 9

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 47 by 9, we get 5 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 45.0
Deduct 45 from 47 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 9

Step 4:
When dividing 29 by 9, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 453.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 27 from 29.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 9

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: 4532.0
If we subtract 18 from 26, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 9

On to step 6:
When dividing 89 by 9, we get 9 with a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 45329.0
Deduct 81 from 89 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 80 by 9, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 45329.8
Deduct 72 from 80 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 8:
80 divided by 9 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 45329.88
Deduct 72 from 80 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 45329.88, with a leftover of 0.008.
