Let's divide 864908 by 41
We want to figure out the number of times 864908 can be divided by 41.

Step 1:
8 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 86 / 41

On to step 2:
The number 41 fits into 86 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 82 from 86.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 44 / 41

On to step 3:
If we divide 44 by 41, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we take 41 away from 44, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 41

Step 4:
39 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 210.0
Subtract 0 from 39 to get 39.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 390 / 41

Going ahead to step 5:
390 divided by 41 is 9 with a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2109.0
If we take 369 away from 390, we end up with 21.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 41

On to step 6:
When dividing 218 by 41, we get 5 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21095.0
If we take 205 away from 218, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 130 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21095.3
Deduct 123 from 130 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
70 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21095.31
Subtracting 41 from 70 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
290 divided by 41 is 7 with a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21095.317
If we take 287 away from 290, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 30 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21095.317
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 300 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21095.31707
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 287 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 12:
130 divided by 41 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21095.317073
Deduct 123 from 130 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 70 by 41, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21095.3170731
Deduct 41 from 70 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
41 goes into 290 7 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 21095.31707317
Subtracting 287 from 290 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 21095.31707317, and the remainder is 3e-09.
