Let's divide 6451 by 41
We're looking to find how many times 41 goes into 6451.

Going ahead to step 1:
41 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 64 / 41

Step 2:
64 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 41 from 64, we get 23.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 235 / 41

Advancing to step 3:
41 can be fit into 235 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 205 from 235 leaves us with 30.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 301 / 41

On to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 301 7 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 157.0
Subtracting 287 from 301 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 5:
The number 41 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 157.3
Subtract 123 from 140 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
170 divided by 41 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157.34
If we subtract 164 from 170, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 41 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 157.341
Subtracting 41 from 60 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 41 fits into 190 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 157.3414
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 164 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 9:
260 divided by 41 is 6 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157.34146
Subtracting 246 from 260 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 140 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157.341463
Deduct 123 from 140 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 170 by 41, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 157.3414634
Deduct 164 from 170 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
60 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157.34146341
Subtracting 41 from 60 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 157.34146341 and a remainder of 1.9e-08.
