498761 divided by 41 
We want to divide 498761 by 41.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 41

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 49 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 41 from 49 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 41

Step 3:
The number 41 fits into 88 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 82 from 88 and we're left with 6.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 67 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
41 goes into 67 1 times with a remainder of 26.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 121.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 41 from 67.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 266 / 41

Going ahead to step 5:
266 divided by 41 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1216.0
If we take 246 away from 266, we end up with 20.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 201 / 41

Advancing to step 6:
The number 41 fits into 201 4 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12164.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 164 from 201.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 41 fits into 370 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12164.9
Subtract 369 from 370 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 10 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12164.9
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
100 divided by 41 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12164.902
Deduct 82 from 100 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 180 by 41, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12164.9024
If we subtract 164 from 180, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
41 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12164.90243
Deduct 123 from 160 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
41 goes into 370 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12164.902439
Deduct 369 from 370 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
41 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12164.902439
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 14:
41 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12164.90243902
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 82 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12164.90243902 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
