Let's divide 204381 by 41
We want to figure out the number of times 204381 can be divided by 41.

Let's proceed to step 1:
41 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 20 / 41

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 20 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 204 / 41

Let's proceed to step 3:
41 can be fit into 204 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 164 from 204 leaves us with 40.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 403 / 41

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 403 by 41, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49.0
Subtracting 369 from 403 leaves us with 34.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 348 / 41

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 41 fits into 348 8 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 498.0
Deduct 328 from 348 and we're left with 20.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 201 / 41

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 201 by 41, we get 4 and a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4984.0
Deduct 164 from 201 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 41 fits into 370 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4984.9
Deduct 369 from 370 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 8:
41 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4984.9
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
41 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4984.902
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 82 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 10:
41 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4984.9024
If we take 164 away from 180, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
41 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4984.90243
If we take 123 away from 160, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 41 fits into 370 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4984.902439
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 369 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 41 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4984.902439
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
100 divided by 41 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4984.90243902
Subtracting 82 from 100 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4984.90243902, and the remainder is 1.8e-08.
