We look at the division of 41538682 by 856 
We're looking to find how many times 856 goes into 41538682.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 856 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 41 / 856

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 41 by 856, we get 0 with a remainder of 41.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 0 from 41.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 415 / 856

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 856 fits into 415 0 times, leaving a remainder of 415.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 415 leaves us with 415.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 415, then repeat: 4153 / 856

On to step 4:
856 goes into 4153 4 times with a remainder of 729.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 3424 from 4153 to get 729.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 729 and repeat the process: 7298 / 856

Going ahead to step 5:
7298 divided by 856 is 8 with a remainder of 450.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48.0
Deduct 6848 from 7298 and we're left with 450.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 450 and continue: 4506 / 856

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 4506 by 856, we get 5 and a remainder of 226.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 485.0
Subtracting 4280 from 4506 leaves us with 226.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 226 and repeat the process: 2268 / 856

Step 7:
If we divide 2268 by 856, we get 2 and a remainder of 556.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4852.0
If we subtract 1712 from 2268, we get 556.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 556 and continue: 5562 / 856

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 856 fits into 5562 6 times, leaving a remainder of 426.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48526.0
Subtracting 5136 from 5562 leaves us with 426.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
4260 divided by 856 is 4 with a remainder of 836.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48526.4
Subtracting 3424 from 4260 leaves us with 836.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
856 goes into 8360 9 times with a remainder of 656.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48526.49
If we take 7704 away from 8360, we end up with 656.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 6560 by 856, we get 7 with a remainder of 568.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48526.497
Subtracting 5992 from 6560 leaves us with 568.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 5680 by 856, we get 6 with a remainder of 544.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 48526.4976
If we subtract 5136 from 5680, we get 544.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 5440 by 856, we get 6 with a remainder of 304.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 48526.49766
If we take 5136 away from 5440, we end up with 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Our division results in 48526.49766 with a remaining 0.000304.
