986159 divided by 18 
We want to figure out the number of times 986159 can be divided by 18.

Step 1:
9 divided by 18 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 18

Moving on to step 2:
The number 18 fits into 98 5 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 90 from 98 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 18

On to step 3:
If we divide 86 by 18, we get 4 and a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtract 72 from 86 to get 14.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 141 / 18

Moving on to step 4:
18 can be fit into 141 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 547.0
If we take 126 away from 141, we end up with 15.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 155 / 18

Moving on to step 5:
The number 18 fits into 155 8 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5478.0
If we take 144 away from 155, we end up with 11.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 119 / 18

Advancing to step 6:
18 goes into 119 6 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54786.0
Subtracting 108 from 119 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
18 can be fit into 110 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 54786.6
Subtracting 108 from 110 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
18 goes into 20 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54786.61
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 18 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 18 fits into 20 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54786.611
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 18 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 54786.611 with a balance of 0.0002.
