52642 divided by 41 
We want to divide 52642 by 41.

On to step 1:
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: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 52 / 41

On to step 2:
When dividing 52 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 41 from 52, we get 11.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 116 / 41

Step 3:
When dividing 116 by 41, we get 2 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 82 from 116 leaves us with 34.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 344 / 41

Step 4:
The number 41 fits into 344 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 128.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 328 from 344.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 162 / 41

Step 5:
If we divide 162 by 41, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1283.0
Subtract 123 from 162 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
The number 41 fits into 390 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1283.9
Subtract 369 from 390 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
41 can be fit into 210 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1283.95
Deduct 205 from 210 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
41 can be fit into 50 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1283.951
If we subtract 41 from 50, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
41 goes into 90 2 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1283.9512
Subtract 82 from 90 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
80 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1283.95121
Subtracting 41 from 80 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
41 goes into 390 9 times with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1283.951219
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 369 from 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 41 fits into 210 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1283.9512195
Deduct 205 from 210 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 50 by 41, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1283.95121951
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 41 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

The final result is 1283.95121951 with a remainder of 9e-09.
