278876 ÷ 41 
Let's see how many times 41 fits into 278876.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 41

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 27 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 27.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 278 / 41

Going ahead to step 3:
41 goes into 278 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 246 from 278 and we're left with 32.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 328 / 41

Moving on to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 328 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 68.0
If we take 328 away from 328, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 7 / 41

Step 5:
When dividing 7 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 680.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 76 / 41

Advancing to step 6:
76 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6801.0
If we take 41 away from 76, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 350 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6801.8
If we subtract 328 from 350, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
41 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6801.85
If we subtract 205 from 220, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 41 fits into 150 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6801.853
If we take 123 away from 150, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
41 goes into 270 6 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6801.8536
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 246 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
41 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6801.85365
Subtracting 205 from 240 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
41 goes into 350 8 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6801.853658
If we take 328 away from 350, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 220 by 41, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6801.8536585
If we subtract 205 from 220, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
150 divided by 41 is 3 with a remainder of 27.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6801.85365853
Subtracting 123 from 150 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6801.85365853 with a remaining 2.7e-08.
