We divide 317038 by 81
Our goal is to divide 317038 by 81.

Moving on to step 1:
81 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 81

Advancing to step 2:
31 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 317 / 81

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 317 by 81, we get 3 with a remainder of 74.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 243 from 317 and we're left with 74.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 740 / 81

On to step 4:
81 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39.0
Subtracting 729 from 740 leaves us with 11.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 113 / 81

Step 5:
The number 81 fits into 113 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 391.0
Subtract 81 from 113 to get 32.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 328 / 81

Step 6:
81 goes into 328 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3914.0
If we subtract 324 from 328, we 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.

Step 7:
The number 81 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3914.0
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
400 divided by 81 is 4 with a remainder of 76.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3914.04
If we subtract 324 from 400, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
81 goes into 760 9 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3914.049
If we subtract 729 from 760, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
81 can be fit into 310 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3914.0493
Subtract 243 from 310 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 670 by 81, we get 8 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3914.04938
Subtract 648 from 670 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.

Advancing to step 12:
81 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3914.049382
If we subtract 162 from 220, we get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
81 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3914.0493827
Deduct 567 from 580 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 130 by 81, we get 1 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3914.04938271
Subtract 81 from 130 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

The final result is 3914.04938271 with a remainder of 4.9e-08.
