987761 divided by 41 
We want to divide 987761 by 41.

Step 1:
41 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 41

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 82 from 98 to get 16.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 167 / 41

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 167 by 41, we get 4 with a remainder of 3.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtract 164 from 167 to get 3.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 41

Step 4:
If we divide 37 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 37.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 240.0
If we take 0 away from 37, we end up with 37.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 376 / 41

On to step 5:
The number 41 fits into 376 9 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2409.0
If we subtract 369 from 376, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 41

Advancing to step 6:
71 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 30.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24091.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 41 from 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
41 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24091.7
Subtracting 287 from 300 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 130 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24091.73
Subtracting 123 from 130 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 70 by 41, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 24091.731
Deduct 41 from 70 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 290 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24091.7317
Deduct 287 from 290 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
30 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24091.7317
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 300 by 41, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24091.731707
Subtracting 287 from 300 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 130 by 41, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24091.7317073
Deduct 123 from 130 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
70 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24091.73170731
If we take 41 away from 70, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 24091.73170731 with a balance of 2.9e-08.
