861548 divided by 41 
We want to figure out the number of times 861548 can be divided by 41.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 41 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 41

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 86 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 82 from 86 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 41 / 41

Going ahead to step 3:
41 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 41 from 41, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 5 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 5 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 210.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 41

Advancing to step 5:
41 goes into 54 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2101.0
Subtracting 41 from 54 leaves us with 13.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 138 / 41

Step 6:
138 divided by 41 is 3 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21013.0
If we subtract 123 from 138, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 41 fits into 150 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 21013.3
Deduct 123 from 150 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
41 can be fit into 270 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21013.36
Subtract 246 from 270 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 240 by 41, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21013.365
Deduct 205 from 240 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 350 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21013.3658
Subtract 328 from 350 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 11:
220 divided by 41 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21013.36585
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 205 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 150 by 41, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21013.365853
Subtracting 123 from 150 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 270 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21013.3658536
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 246 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 41 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21013.36585365
If we take 205 away from 240, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

The final result is 21013.36585365 with a remainder of 3.5e-08.
