Let's divide 638433 by 41
We want to divide 638433 by 41.

Moving on to step 1:
41 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 63 / 41

Let's proceed to step 2:
41 goes into 63 1 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 41 from 63.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 228 / 41

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 41 fits into 228 5 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 205 from 228, we get 23.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 234 / 41

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 234 5 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 155.0
Subtract 205 from 234 to get 29.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 293 / 41

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 293 by 41, we get 7 and a remainder of 6.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1557.0
Subtract 287 from 293 to get 6.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 63 / 41

Step 6:
When dividing 63 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 15571.0
Deduct 41 from 63 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
41 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15571.5
If we take 205 away from 220, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 150 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 27.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15571.53
If we subtract 123 from 150, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
41 goes into 270 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15571.536
If we take 246 away from 270, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 240 by 41, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15571.5365
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 205 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
41 can be fit into 350 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15571.53658
If we subtract 328 from 350, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 220 by 41, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15571.536585
If we take 205 away from 220, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 150 by 41, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 15571.5365853
Subtract 123 from 150 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 270 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15571.53658536
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 246 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 15571.53658536 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
