We divide 159738 by 41
We're looking to find how many times 41 goes into 159738.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 41

On to step 2:
The number 41 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 0 from 15.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 159 / 41

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 159 by 41, we get 3 with a remainder of 36.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 123 from 159 and we're left with 36.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 367 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 367 by 41, we get 8 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 328 from 367, we get 39.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 393 / 41

Moving on to step 5:
41 goes into 393 9 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 389.0
Deduct 369 from 393 and we're left with 24.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 248 / 41

Step 6:
The number 41 fits into 248 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3896.0
If we subtract 246 from 248, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 41 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3896.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 200 by 41, we get 4 with a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3896.04
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 164 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
41 can be fit into 360 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3896.048
Subtracting 328 from 360 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
41 can be fit into 320 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3896.0487
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 287 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 41 fits into 330 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3896.04878
If we subtract 328 from 330, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 20 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3896.04878
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
41 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3896.0487804
If we take 164 away from 200, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 360 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3896.04878048
Subtract 328 from 360 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3896.04878048 with a balance of 3.2e-08.
