We're dividing 422983 by 81 
We're looking to find how many times 81 goes into 422983.

Going ahead to step 1:
81 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 42 / 81

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 42 by 81, we get 0 with a remainder of 42.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 42, we get 42.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 422 / 81

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 81 fits into 422 5 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 405 from 422, we get 17.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 179 / 81

Advancing to step 4:
179 divided by 81 is 2 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we take 162 away from 179, we end up with 17.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 178 / 81

Going ahead to step 5:
81 can be fit into 178 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 522.0
If we take 162 away from 178, we end up with 16.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 163 / 81

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 163 by 81, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5222.0
If we subtract 162 from 163, we 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 7:
The number 81 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5222.0
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 81, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5222.01
Subtracting 81 from 100 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
190 divided by 81 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5222.012
Subtract 162 from 190 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
81 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 37.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5222.0123
Deduct 243 from 280 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.

On to step 11:
370 divided by 81 is 4 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5222.01234
Subtracting 324 from 370 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 81 fits into 460 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5222.012345
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 405 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
81 goes into 550 6 times with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5222.0123456
Subtracting 486 from 550 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 640 by 81, we get 7 and a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5222.01234567
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 567 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5222.01234567 and a remainder of 7.3e-08.
