Let's divide 162679 by 41
Our goal is to divide 162679 by 41.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 41

Let's proceed to step 2:
16 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 162 / 41

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 162 by 41, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 123 from 162.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 396 / 41

Step 4:
The number 41 fits into 396 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we take 369 away from 396, we end up with 27.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 277 / 41

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 277 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 396.0
Subtracting 246 from 277 leaves us with 31.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 319 / 41

Going ahead to step 6:
41 goes into 319 7 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3967.0
Subtracting 287 from 319 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 41 fits into 320 7 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3967.7
Subtracting 287 from 320 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
330 divided by 41 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3967.78
Subtract 328 from 330 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 20 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3967.78
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 41 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3967.7804
Deduct 164 from 200 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 360 by 41, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3967.78048
Subtracting 328 from 360 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 41, we get 7 and a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3967.780487
Subtracting 287 from 320 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
41 goes into 330 8 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3967.7804878
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 328 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
41 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3967.7804878
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3967.7804878 with a remaining 2e-08.
