We divide 704996 by 9
We want to figure out the number of times 704996 can be divided by 9.

Going ahead to step 1:
9 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 70 / 9

Let's proceed to step 2:
9 can be fit into 70 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 63 from 70 to get 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 9

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 74 by 9, we get 8 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78.0
Subtracting 72 from 74 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 9

Advancing to step 4:
29 divided by 9 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 783.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 27 from 29.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 9

Advancing to step 5:
9 goes into 29 3 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7833.0
If we subtract 27 from 29, we get 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 9

Moving on to step 6:
9 goes into 26 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78332.0
Deduct 18 from 26 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
80 divided by 9 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 78332.8
Subtract 72 from 80 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 80 by 9, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 78332.88
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 78332.88 with a balance of 0.008.
