We're dividing 331697 by 41 
We're looking to find how many times 41 goes into 331697.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 33 / 41

Moving on to step 2:
41 can be fit into 33 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 33 leaves us with 33.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 331 / 41

Let's proceed to step 3:
331 divided by 41 is 8 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 328 from 331 to get 3.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 36 / 41

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 36 0 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 0 from 36.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 369 / 41

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 369 by 41, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 809.0
Subtract 369 from 369 to get 0.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 7 / 41

Going ahead to step 6:
41 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8090.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
70 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8090.1
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.

Step 8:
When dividing 290 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8090.17
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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 30 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8090.17
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 10:
300 divided by 41 is 7 with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8090.1707
If we take 287 away from 300, we end up 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 11:
41 can be fit into 130 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8090.17073
If we take 123 away from 130, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 70 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8090.170731
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 41 from 70.
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 13:
The number 41 fits into 290 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8090.1707317
Subtracting 287 from 290 leaves us 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.

Step 14:
If we divide 30 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8090.1707317
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left 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.

The final result is 8090.1707317 with a remainder of 3e-08.
