255497 divided by 18 
Let's see how many times 18 fits into 255497.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 18 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 18

On to step 2:
18 can be fit into 25 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 18 from 25.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 75 / 18

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 18 fits into 75 4 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 72 from 75 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 34 / 18

On to step 4:
When dividing 34 by 18, we get 1 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 141.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 18 from 34.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 169 / 18

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 169 by 18, we get 9 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1419.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 162 from 169.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 77 / 18

Advancing to step 6:
18 can be fit into 77 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14194.0
If we subtract 72 from 77, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 18, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14194.2
Subtract 36 from 50 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
140 divided by 18 is 7 with a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14194.27
If we take 126 away from 140, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 18 fits into 140 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14194.277
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 126 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 14194.277, with a leftover of 0.0014.
