We're dividing 986746 by 41 
We're looking to find how many times 41 goes into 986746.

Moving on to step 1:
41 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 41

Step 2:
41 can be fit into 98 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 82 from 98 to get 16.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 166 / 41

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 166 by 41, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtract 164 from 166 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 27 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 240.0
If we subtract 0 from 27, we get 27.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 274 / 41

Moving on to step 5:
274 divided by 41 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2406.0
If we subtract 246 from 274, we get 28.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 286 / 41

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 41 fits into 286 6 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24066.0
Deduct 246 from 286 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
41 goes into 400 9 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 24066.9
Deduct 369 from 400 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
41 goes into 310 7 times with a remainder of 23.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24066.97
Subtract 287 from 310 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 230 by 41, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24066.975
Deduct 205 from 230 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 250 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24066.9756
If we take 246 away from 250, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
40 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24066.9756
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 41 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24066.975609
Deduct 369 from 400 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 41 fits into 310 7 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24066.9756097
Deduct 287 from 310 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
41 goes into 230 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24066.97560975
Subtract 205 from 230 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 24066.97560975 and a remainder of 2.5e-08.
