We're dividing 218047 by 41 
Our goal is to divide 218047 by 41.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 41

On to step 2:
21 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 218 / 41

Step 3:
218 divided by 41 is 5 with a remainder of 13.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 205 from 218.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 130 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 130 3 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
Subtract 123 from 130 to get 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 41

Step 5:
41 goes into 74 1 times with a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 531.0
Subtract 41 from 74 to get 33.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 337 / 41

On to step 6:
If we divide 337 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 9.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5318.0
Subtract 328 from 337 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 90 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5318.2
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 82 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 80 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 39.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5318.21
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 41 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 390 by 41, we get 9 and a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5318.219
Deduct 369 from 390 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
41 goes into 210 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5318.2195
If we take 205 away from 210, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
50 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5318.21951
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 41 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
90 divided by 41 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5318.219512
Subtracting 82 from 90 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 80 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5318.2195121
If we subtract 41 from 80, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 390 by 41, we get 9 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5318.21951219
Subtracting 369 from 390 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5318.21951219, with a leftover of 2.1e-08.
