Let's divide 240505 by 81
Our goal is to divide 240505 by 81.

Advancing to step 1:
81 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.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 81

Let's proceed to step 2:
24 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 240 / 81

Moving on to step 3:
81 can be fit into 240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 162 from 240 leaves us with 78.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 78 and continue: 785 / 81

Going ahead to step 4:
785 divided by 81 is 9 with a remainder of 56.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtract 729 from 785 to get 56.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 56, then carry on: 560 / 81

On to step 5:
If we divide 560 by 81, we get 6 and a remainder of 74.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 296.0
If we subtract 486 from 560, we get 74.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 745 / 81

Going ahead to step 6:
81 goes into 745 9 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2969.0
Subtracting 729 from 745 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
81 can be fit into 160 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2969.1
If we subtract 81 from 160, we get 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Step 8:
81 goes into 790 9 times with a remainder of 61.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2969.19
Subtract 729 from 790 to get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
81 goes into 610 7 times with a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2969.197
If we take 567 away from 610, we end up with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Step 10:
81 goes into 430 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2969.1975
Subtract 405 from 430 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
81 can be fit into 250 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2969.19753
Deduct 243 from 250 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 12:
If we divide 70 by 81, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2969.19753
Deduct 0 from 70 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 700 by 81, we get 8 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2969.1975308
Subtract 648 from 700 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 81 fits into 520 6 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2969.19753086
If we take 486 away from 520, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2969.19753086 with a balance of 3.4e-08.
