281188 divided by 71 
We want to divide 281188 by 71.

Step 1:
71 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 71

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 28 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 28 and we're left with 28.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 281 / 71

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 281 by 71, we get 3 and a remainder of 68.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 213 from 281 and we're left with 68.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 681 / 71

Advancing to step 4:
The number 71 fits into 681 9 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 639 from 681 leaves us with 42.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 428 / 71

Advancing to step 5:
71 goes into 428 6 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 396.0
If we take 426 away from 428, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 71

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 71 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3960.0
Subtract 0 from 28 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.

On to step 7:
71 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3960.3
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 213 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
71 goes into 670 9 times with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3960.39
If we take 639 away from 670, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
71 goes into 310 4 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3960.394
Deduct 284 from 310 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
71 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3960.3943
If we subtract 213 from 260, 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 11:
When dividing 470 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3960.39436
Subtracting 426 from 470 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 440 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3960.394366
If we take 426 away from 440, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3960.394366 and a remainder of 1.4e-06.
