258497 divided by 41 
We want to figure out the number of times 258497 can be divided by 41.

On to step 1:
41 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 41

Advancing to step 2:
25 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 258 / 41

On to step 3:
258 divided by 41 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 246 from 258 leaves us with 12.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 124 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 124 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63.0
Deduct 123 from 124 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 41

Step 5:
19 divided by 41 is 0 with a remainder of 19.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 630.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 0 from 19.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 197 / 41

Step 6:
When dividing 197 by 41, we get 4 with a remainder of 33.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6304.0
Subtracting 164 from 197 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 330 by 41, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6304.8
If we take 328 away from 330, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 41, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6304.8
Subtract 0 from 20 to 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.

Step 9:
41 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6304.804
If we subtract 164 from 200, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 41 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6304.8048
If we take 328 away from 360, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
41 can be fit into 320 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6304.80487
Subtract 287 from 320 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
41 can be fit into 330 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6304.804878
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.

Step 13:
If we divide 20 by 41, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6304.804878
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.

Advancing to step 14:
41 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6304.80487804
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.

The final outcome is 6304.80487804, with a leftover of 3.6e-08.
