We're dividing 688448 by 41 
We want to divide 688448 by 41.

Let's proceed to step 1:
6 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 41

On to step 2:
The number 41 fits into 68 1 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 41 from 68 leaves us with 27.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 278 / 41

Advancing to step 3:
41 goes into 278 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 246 away from 278, we end up with 32.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 324 / 41

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 324 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 167.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 287 from 324.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 374 / 41

Step 5:
374 divided by 41 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1679.0
If we subtract 369 from 374, we get 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 41

Going ahead to step 6:
41 can be fit into 58 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16791.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 41 from 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
41 can be fit into 170 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16791.4
Deduct 164 from 170 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
41 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16791.41
Deduct 41 from 60 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 190 by 41, we get 4 and a remainder of 26.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16791.414
If we subtract 164 from 190, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 260 by 41, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16791.4146
Subtracting 246 from 260 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
41 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16791.41463
Subtract 123 from 140 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 170 by 41, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16791.414634
Subtract 164 from 170 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 60 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 16791.4146341
Subtract 41 from 60 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 41 fits into 190 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16791.41463414
Subtracting 164 from 190 leaves us 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.

The final result is 16791.41463414 with a remainder of 2.6e-08.
