We're dividing 242908 by 41 
Let's see how many times 41 fits into 242908.

On to step 1:
The number 41 fits into 2 0 times, leaving 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.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 41

Advancing to step 2:
The number 41 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 242 / 41

On to step 3:
The number 41 fits into 242 5 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 205 from 242, we get 37.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 379 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 379 9 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Deduct 369 from 379 and we're left with 10.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 100 / 41

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 100 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 18.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 592.0
Subtracting 82 from 100 leaves us with 18.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 188 / 41

Step 6:
The number 41 fits into 188 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5924.0
Subtract 164 from 188 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 7:
41 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5924.5
Subtracting 205 from 240 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
41 goes into 350 8 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5924.58
Deduct 328 from 350 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
220 divided by 41 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5924.585
If we subtract 205 from 220, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
41 can be fit into 150 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5924.5853
If we take 123 away from 150, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 270 by 41, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5924.58536
If we subtract 246 from 270, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 240 by 41, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5924.585365
If we subtract 205 from 240, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 350 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5924.5853658
Subtracting 328 from 350 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 41 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5924.58536585
Subtract 205 from 220 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5924.58536585, and the remainder is 1.5e-08.
