Let's divide 397226 by 81
Let's see how many times 81 fits into 397226.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 81, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 81

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 39 by 81, we get 0 with a remainder of 39.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 39, we get 39.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 397 / 81

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 397 by 81, we get 4 with a remainder of 73.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 324 from 397 to get 73.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 73, then repeat: 732 / 81

On to step 4:
81 can be fit into 732 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 49.0
Deduct 729 from 732 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 32 / 81

Step 5:
81 goes into 32 0 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 490.0
Subtracting 0 from 32 leaves us with 32.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 326 / 81

Advancing to step 6:
81 goes into 326 4 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4904.0
Subtract 324 from 326 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 81, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4904.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us 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.

Step 8:
81 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4904.02
If we subtract 162 from 200, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 9:
81 goes into 380 4 times with a remainder of 56.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4904.024
Subtract 324 from 380 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
560 divided by 81 is 6 with a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4904.0246
Subtract 486 from 560 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 81 fits into 740 9 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4904.02469
If we subtract 729 from 740, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
110 divided by 81 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4904.024691
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 81 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 290 by 81, we get 3 with a remainder of 47.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4904.0246913
If we subtract 243 from 290, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 14:
81 goes into 470 5 times with a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4904.02469135
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 405 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4904.02469135 with a remaining 6.5e-08.
