We look at the division of 216217 by 41 
We want to divide 216217 by 41.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 41

Step 2:
If we divide 21 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 216 / 41

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 216 by 41, we get 5 and a remainder of 11.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 205 from 216 and we're left with 11.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 112 / 41

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 112 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 30.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we take 82 away from 112, we end up with 30.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 301 / 41

Let's proceed to step 5:
41 can be fit into 301 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 527.0
Subtracting 287 from 301 leaves us with 14.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 147 / 41

Going ahead to step 6:
147 divided by 41 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5273.0
If we take 123 away from 147, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
41 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5273.5
Subtract 205 from 240 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 350 by 41, we get 8 with a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5273.58
Subtract 328 from 350 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
41 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5273.585
Subtract 205 from 220 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 150 by 41, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5273.5853
If we subtract 123 from 150, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 270 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5273.58536
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 246 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
41 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5273.585365
If we take 205 away from 240, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
41 can be fit into 350 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5273.5853658
Subtract 328 from 350 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
41 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5273.58536585
If we take 205 away from 220, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5273.58536585, and the remainder is 1.5e-08.
