\begin{array}{l}\phantom{18)}\phantom{1}\\18\overline{)144}\\\end{array}
Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 144
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{18)}0\phantom{2}\\18\overline{)144}\\\end{array}
Since 1 is less than 18, use the next digit 4 from dividend 144 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{18)}0\phantom{3}\\18\overline{)144}\\\end{array}
Use the 2^{nd} digit 4 from dividend 144
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{18)}00\phantom{4}\\18\overline{)144}\\\end{array}
Since 14 is less than 18, use the next digit 4 from dividend 144 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{18)}00\phantom{5}\\18\overline{)144}\\\end{array}
Use the 3^{rd} digit 4 from dividend 144
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{18)}008\phantom{6}\\18\overline{)144}\\\phantom{18)}\underline{\phantom{}144\phantom{}}\\\phantom{18)999}0\\\end{array}
Find closest multiple of 18 to 144. We see that 8 \times 18 = 144 is the nearest. Now subtract 144 from 144 to get reminder 0. Add 8 to quotient.
\text{Quotient: }8 \text{Reminder: }0
Since 0 is less than 18, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 008 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 8.
