Our goal is to divide 41987998 by 523.

Step 1:
4 divided by 523 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 41 / 523

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 523 fits into 41 0 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 0 from 41.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 419 / 523

Advancing to step 3:
523 can be fit into 419 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 419.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 419 after subtracting 0 from 419.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 419, then repeat: 4198 / 523

On to step 4:
4198 divided by 523 is 8 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 4184 from 4198, we get 14.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 147 / 523

Advancing to step 5:
523 can be fit into 147 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 147.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 80.0
The remainder is 147 after subtracting 0 from 147.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 147 and continue: 1479 / 523

Advancing to step 6:
523 can be fit into 1479 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 433.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 802.0
If we subtract 1046 from 1479, we get 433.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 433, then carry on: 4339 / 523

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 4339 by 523, we get 8 and a remainder of 155.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8028.0
Deduct 4184 from 4339 and we're left with 155.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 155 and continue: 1558 / 523

Let's proceed to step 8:
1558 divided by 523 is 2 with a remainder of 512.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 80282.0
Deduct 1046 from 1558 and we're left with 512.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 523 fits into 5120 9 times, leaving a remainder of 413.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 80282.9
If we subtract 4707 from 5120, we get 413.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
523 goes into 4130 7 times with a remainder of 469.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 80282.97
The remainder is 469 after subtracting 3661 from 4130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 4690 by 523, we get 8 and a remainder of 506.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80282.978
The remainder is 506 after subtracting 4184 from 4690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5060, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
523 can be fit into 5060 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 353.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 80282.9789
Deduct 4707 from 5060 and we're left with 353.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3530, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 523 fits into 3530 6 times, leaving a remainder of 392.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 80282.97896
The remainder is 392 after subtracting 3138 from 3530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 3920 by 523, we get 7 with a remainder of 259.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80282.978967
The remainder is 259 after subtracting 3661 from 3920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2590, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 2590 by 523, we get 4 with a remainder of 498.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 80282.9789674
If we subtract 2092 from 2590, we get 498.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4980, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
523 goes into 4980 9 times with a remainder of 273.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80282.97896749
Subtracting 4707 from 4980 leaves us with 273.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2730, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 80282.97896749 with a balance of 2.73e-07.
