We're dividing 141859 by 41 
We want to divide 141859 by 41.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 41

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 14 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 141 / 41

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 141 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 123 from 141.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 188 / 41

On to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 188 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 34.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 164 from 188.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 245 / 41

Step 5:
41 can be fit into 245 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 345.0
Subtracting 205 from 245 leaves us with 40.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 409 / 41

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 409 by 41, we get 9 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3459.0
If we subtract 369 from 409, we get 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:
When dividing 400 by 41, we get 9 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3459.9
If we take 369 away from 400, 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.

On to step 8:
310 divided by 41 is 7 with a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3459.97
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.

Advancing to step 9:
41 goes into 230 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3459.975
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 205 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
41 goes into 250 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3459.9756
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 246 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
40 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3459.9756
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
41 goes into 400 9 times with a remainder of 31.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3459.975609
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.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 310 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3459.9756097
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 287 from 310.
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 can be fit into 230 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3459.97560975
If we subtract 205 from 230, we 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.

Our division results in 3459.97560975 with a remaining 2.5e-08.
