We're dividing 230738 by 81 
Our goal is to divide 230738 by 81.

Step 1:
2 divided by 81 is 0 with 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 (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 81

On to step 2:
81 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 230 / 81

Step 3:
The number 81 fits into 230 2 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 162 from 230.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 68, then carry on: 687 / 81

Advancing to step 4:
The number 81 fits into 687 8 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtract 648 from 687 to get 39.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 393 / 81

Going ahead to step 5:
81 goes into 393 4 times with a remainder of 69.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 284.0
If we take 324 away from 393, we end up with 69.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 69, then carry on: 698 / 81

Step 6:
The number 81 fits into 698 8 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2848.0
Deduct 648 from 698 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 500 by 81, we get 6 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2848.6
If we subtract 486 from 500, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 140 by 81, we get 1 and a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2848.61
Subtract 81 from 140 to get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 590 by 81, we get 7 and a remainder of 23.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2848.617
If we take 567 away from 590, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
81 can be fit into 230 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2848.6172
If we take 162 away from 230, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 680 by 81, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2848.61728
Subtracting 648 from 680 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 320 by 81, we get 3 with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2848.617283
The remainder is 77 after subtracting 243 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
81 goes into 770 9 times with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2848.6172839
If we subtract 729 from 770, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
81 goes into 410 5 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2848.61728395
Subtracting 405 from 410 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

The final result is 2848.61728395 with a remainder of 5e-09.
