Let's divide 487424 by 41
We're looking to find how many times 41 goes into 487424.

Going ahead to step 1:
41 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 41

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 41 from 48.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 77 / 41

Let's proceed to step 3:
41 can be fit into 77 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 41 from 77 to get 36.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 364 / 41

Step 4:
41 goes into 364 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
Deduct 328 from 364 and we're left with 36.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 362 / 41

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 41 fits into 362 8 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1188.0
Subtracting 328 from 362 leaves us with 34.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 344 / 41

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 344 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11888.0
Subtract 328 from 344 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
160 divided by 41 is 3 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11888.3
If we subtract 123 from 160, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
41 goes into 370 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11888.39
Deduct 369 from 370 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
41 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11888.39
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 10:
100 divided by 41 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11888.3902
Subtracting 82 from 100 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
41 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11888.39024
Subtract 164 from 180 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 37.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11888.390243
If we take 123 away from 160, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 370 by 41, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11888.3902439
Subtract 369 from 370 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 10 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11888.3902439
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11888.3902439, and the remainder is 1e-08.
