We look at the division of 587409 by 41 
We're looking to find how many times 41 goes into 587409.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 41 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 41

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 41 fits into 58 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 41 from 58 leaves us with 17.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 177 / 41

On to step 3:
If we divide 177 by 41, we get 4 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 164 from 177 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 134 / 41

Going ahead to step 4:
134 divided by 41 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 143.0
Subtracting 123 from 134 leaves us with 11.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 110 / 41

Step 5:
41 goes into 110 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1432.0
If we take 82 away from 110, we end up with 28.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 289 / 41

Let's proceed to step 6:
41 goes into 289 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14327.0
If we subtract 287 from 289, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 20 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14327.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
41 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14327.04
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 164 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
41 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14327.048
Deduct 328 from 360 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
41 can be fit into 320 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 14327.0487
Subtracting 287 from 320 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 330 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 14327.04878
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 328 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 20 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 14327.04878
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
41 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14327.0487804
If we subtract 164 from 200, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 360 by 41, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14327.04878048
Subtracting 328 from 360 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 14327.04878048, and the remainder is 3.2e-08.
