We look at the division of 281981 by 24 
Let's see how many times 24 fits into 281981.

Let's proceed to step 1:
24 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 24

Moving on to step 2:
28 divided by 24 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 24 from 28 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 41 / 24

On to step 3:
24 can be fit into 41 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 24 from 41 and we're left with 17.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 179 / 24

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 179 by 24, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 117.0
If we subtract 168 from 179, we get 11.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 118 / 24

On to step 5:
When dividing 118 by 24, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1174.0
If we subtract 96 from 118, we get 22.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 221 / 24

Advancing to step 6:
The number 24 fits into 221 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11749.0
If we subtract 216 from 221, we get 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 7:
The number 24 fits into 50 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11749.2
If we take 48 away from 50, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
20 divided by 24 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11749.2
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
24 can be fit into 200 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11749.208
Subtract 192 from 200 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:
When dividing 80 by 24, we get 3 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 11749.2083
If we subtract 72 from 80, we 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.

Moving on to step 11:
24 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11749.20833
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 11749.20833, with a leftover of 8e-06.
