We divide 217750 by 41
We want to figure out the number of times 217750 can be divided by 41.

Step 1:
The number 41 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 41

Going ahead to step 2:
41 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 217 / 41

Advancing to step 3:
41 goes into 217 5 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 205 from 217.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 41

Going ahead to step 4:
41 goes into 127 3 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 53.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 123 from 127.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 41

Step 5:
The number 41 fits into 45 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 531.0
Subtracting 41 from 45 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 41

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 40 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5310.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 400 by 41, we get 9 and a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5310.9
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 369 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Step 8:
41 can be fit into 310 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5310.97
If we subtract 287 from 310, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
41 goes into 230 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5310.975
If we subtract 205 from 230, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
250 divided by 41 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5310.9756
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 246 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
40 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5310.9756
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 41 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5310.975609
Deduct 369 from 400 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
41 goes into 310 7 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5310.9756097
Deduct 287 from 310 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 41 fits into 230 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5310.97560975
Subtracting 205 from 230 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5310.97560975 with a remaining 2.5e-08.
