We look at the division of 978816 by 41 
We want to divide 978816 by 41.

Step 1:
If we divide 9 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 41

Let's proceed to step 2:
97 divided by 41 is 2 with a remainder of 15.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 82 from 97 leaves us with 15.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 158 / 41

Step 3:
When dividing 158 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we subtract 123 from 158, we get 35.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 358 / 41

Going ahead to step 4:
358 divided by 41 is 8 with a remainder of 30.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 238.0
Deduct 328 from 358 and we're left with 30.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 301 / 41

On to step 5:
If we divide 301 by 41, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2387.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 287 from 301.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 146 / 41

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 146 by 41, we get 3 and a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 23873.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 123 from 146.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 230 by 41, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23873.5
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 205 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 250 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23873.56
Subtract 246 from 250 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
41 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23873.56
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
41 can be fit into 400 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23873.5609
Subtracting 369 from 400 leaves us 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 11:
The number 41 fits into 310 7 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23873.56097
Subtracting 287 from 310 leaves us 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.

On to step 12:
230 divided by 41 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23873.560975
If we take 205 away from 230, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 250 by 41, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 23873.5609756
Subtract 246 from 250 to get 4.
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 14:
40 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23873.5609756
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 23873.5609756 and a remainder of 4e-08.
