144471 ÷ 81 
Our goal is to divide 144471 by 81.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 81, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 81

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 81 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 14 and we're left with 14.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 144 / 81

Moving on to step 3:
81 can be fit into 144 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 81 from 144.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 63 and continue with: 634 / 81

Moving on to step 4:
634 divided by 81 is 7 with a remainder of 67.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 567 from 634, we get 67.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 67 and continue: 677 / 81

On to step 5:
81 goes into 677 8 times with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 178.0
Deduct 648 from 677 and we're left with 29.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 291 / 81

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 81 fits into 291 3 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1783.0
If we subtract 243 from 291, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 480 by 81, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1783.5
Deduct 405 from 480 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 750 by 81, we get 9 with a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1783.59
Subtract 729 from 750 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 210 by 81, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1783.592
Subtract 162 from 210 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 81 fits into 480 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1783.5925
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 405 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
750 divided by 81 is 9 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1783.59259
Subtracting 729 from 750 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
210 divided by 81 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1783.592592
If we take 162 away from 210, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 480 by 81, we get 5 with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1783.5925925
If we take 405 away from 480, we end up with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
81 goes into 750 9 times with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1783.59259259
If we subtract 729 from 750, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1783.59259259 with a remaining 2.1e-08.
