We're dividing 41040959 by 500 
Let's see how many times 500 fits into 41040959.

Step 1:
The number 500 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 41 / 500

On to step 2:
41 divided by 500 is 0 with a remainder of 41.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 0 from 41.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 410 / 500

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 410 by 500, we get 0 with a remainder of 410.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 410, we end up with 410.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 410, then carry on: 4104 / 500

Let's proceed to step 4:
500 can be fit into 4104 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 104.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 4000 away from 4104, we end up with 104.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 104 and repeat the process: 1040 / 500

Moving on to step 5:
500 can be fit into 1040 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 82.0
Subtracting 1000 from 1040 leaves us with 40.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 409 / 500

On to step 6:
500 goes into 409 0 times with a remainder of 409.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 820.0
If we take 0 away from 409, we end up with 409.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 409, then carry on: 4095 / 500

On to step 7:
500 goes into 4095 8 times with a remainder of 95.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8208.0
If we take 4000 away from 4095, we end up with 95.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 95 and continue: 959 / 500

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 959 by 500, we get 1 and a remainder of 459.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 82081.0
The remainder is 459 after subtracting 500 from 959.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4590, and continue the process.

Step 9:
500 goes into 4590 9 times with a remainder of 90.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 82081.9
Subtract 4500 from 4590 to get 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 900 by 500, we get 1 with a remainder of 400.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 82081.91
Subtracting 500 from 900 leaves us with 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4000, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
4000 divided by 500 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 82081.918
Subtract 4000 from 4000 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
500 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 82081.918
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 500 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 82081.918
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 82081.918 and a remainder of 0.0.
