Let's divide 8504 by 41
We want to figure out the number of times 8504 can be divided by 41.

Going ahead to step 1:
8 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 85 / 41

Step 2:
41 can be fit into 85 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 82 from 85 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 30 / 41

Step 3:
The number 41 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 304 / 41

Step 4:
41 goes into 304 7 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 207.0
Subtracting 287 from 304 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 5:
41 goes into 170 4 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 207.4
Deduct 164 from 170 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 6:
41 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 207.41
If we subtract 41 from 60, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 41 fits into 190 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 207.414
If we subtract 164 from 190, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 260 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 207.4146
Deduct 246 from 260 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 140 by 41, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 207.41463
Deduct 123 from 140 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
41 can be fit into 170 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 207.414634
Deduct 164 from 170 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 41 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 207.4146341
Deduct 41 from 60 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 41 fits into 190 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 207.41463414
If we subtract 164 from 190, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 207.41463414, and the remainder is 2.6e-08.
