308685 divided by 41 
We want to divide 308685 by 41.

Step 1:
If we divide 3 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 30 / 41

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 30 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 308 / 41

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 308 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 287 from 308 leaves us with 21.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 216 / 41

Step 4:
41 goes into 216 5 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 75.0
Subtract 205 from 216 to get 11.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 118 / 41

Moving on to step 5:
The number 41 fits into 118 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 752.0
Deduct 82 from 118 and we're left with 36.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 365 / 41

Step 6:
41 goes into 365 8 times with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7528.0
Subtracting 328 from 365 leaves us 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.

On to step 7:
The number 41 fits into 370 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7528.9
If we take 369 away from 370, we end up 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 10 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7528.9
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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 100 by 41, we get 2 with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7528.902
Deduct 82 from 100 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 180 by 41, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7528.9024
If we take 164 away from 180, we end up with 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 11:
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: 7528.90243
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
41 goes into 370 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7528.902439
Subtracting 369 from 370 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
41 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7528.902439
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
41 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7528.90243902
If we take 82 away from 100, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 7528.90243902 with a balance of 1.8e-08.
