We divide 729257 by 41
Our goal is to divide 729257 by 41.

On to step 1:
41 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 41

Step 2:
41 can be fit into 72 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 41 from 72 leaves us with 31.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 319 / 41

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 319 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 32.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 287 from 319 and we're left with 32.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 322 / 41

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 322 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 177.0
Subtract 287 from 322 to get 35.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 355 / 41

Step 5:
41 can be fit into 355 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1778.0
If we take 328 away from 355, we end up with 27.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 277 / 41

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 277 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17786.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 246 from 277.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 310 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17786.7
Subtract 287 from 310 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 41 fits into 230 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17786.75
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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 41 fits into 250 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 17786.756
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 246 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
41 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17786.756
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 41, we get 9 and a remainder of 31.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17786.75609
If we subtract 369 from 400, 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 12:
41 can be fit into 310 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17786.756097
If we subtract 287 from 310, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
41 can be fit into 230 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17786.7560975
Subtract 205 from 230 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 250 by 41, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17786.75609756
Deduct 246 from 250 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 17786.75609756 with a remainder of 4e-09.
