We divide 488334 by 9
We want to figure out the number of times 488334 can be divided by 9.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 9, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 9

On to step 2:
The number 9 fits into 48 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 45 away from 48, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 9

On to step 3:
The number 9 fits into 38 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54.0
If we take 36 away from 38, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 23 / 9

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 23 by 9, we get 2 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 542.0
If we subtract 18 from 23, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 9

Let's proceed to step 5:
53 divided by 9 is 5 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5425.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 45 from 53.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 84 / 9

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 84 by 9, we get 9 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 54259.0
Subtract 81 from 84 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 30 by 9, we get 3 and a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54259.3
Deduct 27 from 30 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
30 divided by 9 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54259.33
Subtract 27 from 30 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

The final result is 54259.33 with a remainder of 0.003.
