Let's divide 142161 by 81
Our goal is to divide 142161 by 81.

On to step 1:
81 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 81

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 14 by 81, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 14 to get 14.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 142 / 81

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 142 by 81, we get 1 and a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 81 from 142 leaves us with 61.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 61, then carry on: 611 / 81

Step 4:
When dividing 611 by 81, we get 7 with a remainder of 44.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 567 from 611, we get 44.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 446 / 81

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 446 by 81, we get 5 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 175.0
If we subtract 405 from 446, we get 41.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 411 / 81

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 411 by 81, we get 5 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1755.0
Subtracting 405 from 411 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
The number 81 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1755.0
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 81 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1755.07
Deduct 567 from 600 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
81 goes into 330 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1755.074
If we take 324 away from 330, we end up 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.

Step 10:
60 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1755.074
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
81 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1755.07407
If we take 567 away from 600, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 330 by 81, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1755.074074
If we take 324 away from 330, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 60 by 81, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1755.074074
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 81 fits into 600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1755.07407407
Subtracting 567 from 600 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1755.07407407 with a balance of 3.3e-08.
