41248959 ÷ 259 
We want to figure out the number of times 41248959 can be divided by 259.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 259, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 41 / 259

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 41 by 259, we get 0 and a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 41 to get 41.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 412 / 259

On to step 3:
The number 259 fits into 412 1 times, leaving a remainder of 153.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 259 from 412 to get 153.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 153 and continue with: 1534 / 259

Step 4:
If we divide 1534 by 259, we get 5 and a remainder of 239.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 1295 away from 1534, we end up with 239.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 239, then carry on: 2398 / 259

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 2398 by 259, we get 9 with a remainder of 67.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 159.0
If we take 2331 away from 2398, we end up with 67.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 67, then repeat: 679 / 259

Advancing to step 6:
The number 259 fits into 679 2 times, leaving a remainder of 161.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1592.0
Deduct 518 from 679 and we're left with 161.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 161 and continue with: 1615 / 259

Let's proceed to step 7:
1615 divided by 259 is 6 with a remainder of 61.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15926.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 1554 from 1615.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 61 and continue with: 619 / 259

On to step 8:
619 divided by 259 is 2 with a remainder of 101.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 159262.0
Subtract 518 from 619 to get 101.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1010, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
1010 divided by 259 is 3 with a remainder of 233.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 159262.3
Deduct 777 from 1010 and we're left with 233.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2330, and continue the process.

Step 10:
2330 divided by 259 is 8 with a remainder of 258.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 159262.38
If we take 2072 away from 2330, we end up with 258.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2580, and continue the process.

Step 11:
259 goes into 2580 9 times with a remainder of 249.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 159262.389
If we subtract 2331 from 2580, we get 249.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
259 goes into 2490 9 times with a remainder of 159.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 159262.3899
If we take 2331 away from 2490, we end up with 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1590, and continue the process.

The final result is 159262.3899 with a remainder of 0.00159.
