686747 divided by 41 
We want to divide 686747 by 41.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 41 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 68 / 41

Step 2:
41 can be fit into 68 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 41 from 68 leaves us with 27.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 276 / 41

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 276 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 246 away from 276, we end up with 30.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 307 / 41

Moving on to step 4:
41 can be fit into 307 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 167.0
If we subtract 287 from 307, we get 20.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 204 / 41

Step 5:
204 divided by 41 is 4 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1674.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 164 from 204.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 407 / 41

Step 6:
41 goes into 407 9 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16749.0
Subtracting 369 from 407 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
380 divided by 41 is 9 with a remainder of 11.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16749.9
Subtract 369 from 380 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 110 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 16749.92
Subtract 82 from 110 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
280 divided by 41 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16749.926
Subtracting 246 from 280 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 340 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16749.9268
If we subtract 328 from 340, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 120 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16749.92682
If we take 82 away from 120, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
41 can be fit into 380 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16749.926829
Deduct 369 from 380 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 110 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 16749.9268292
If we take 82 away from 110, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 280 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 34.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16749.92682926
If we subtract 246 from 280, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 16749.92682926, with a leftover of 3.4e-08.
