We look at the division of 296138 by 81 
We're looking to find how many times 81 goes into 296138.

Let's proceed to step 1:
81 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 81

Step 2:
81 goes into 29 0 times with a remainder of 29.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 296 / 81

On to step 3:
When dividing 296 by 81, we get 3 with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 243 from 296 leaves us with 53.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 53, then repeat: 531 / 81

Let's proceed to step 4:
81 can be fit into 531 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 36.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 486 from 531.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 453 / 81

On to step 5:
453 divided by 81 is 5 with a remainder of 48.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 365.0
If we take 405 away from 453, we end up with 48.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 488 / 81

On to step 6:
81 goes into 488 6 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3656.0
Subtracting 486 from 488 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
81 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3656.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 81, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3656.02
Subtracting 162 from 200 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 380 by 81, we get 4 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3656.024
Subtracting 324 from 380 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 560 by 81, we get 6 with a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3656.0246
Subtract 486 from 560 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 81 fits into 740 9 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3656.02469
If we subtract 729 from 740, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
81 goes into 110 1 times with a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3656.024691
Deduct 81 from 110 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 290 by 81, we get 3 and a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3656.0246913
If we take 243 away from 290, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 14:
81 goes into 470 5 times with a remainder of 65.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3656.02469135
If we subtract 405 from 470, we get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

The final result is 3656.02469135 with a remainder of 6.5e-08.
