Let's divide 180438 by 81
Let's see how many times 81 fits into 180438.

Going ahead to step 1:
1 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 81

Advancing to step 2:
81 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 18, we end up with 18.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 180 / 81

Advancing to step 3:
180 divided by 81 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 162 from 180, we get 18.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 184 / 81

Let's proceed to step 4:
81 goes into 184 2 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtract 162 from 184 to get 22.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 223 / 81

On to step 5:
When dividing 223 by 81, we get 2 with a remainder of 61.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 222.0
Deduct 162 from 223 and we're left with 61.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 61 and continue: 618 / 81

Step 6:
618 divided by 81 is 7 with a remainder of 51.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2227.0
Subtracting 567 from 618 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 510 by 81, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2227.6
Subtracting 486 from 510 leaves us with 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 8:
240 divided by 81 is 2 with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2227.62
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 162 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
81 goes into 780 9 times with a remainder of 51.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2227.629
Subtracting 729 from 780 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
81 can be fit into 510 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2227.6296
Deduct 486 from 510 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
81 can be fit into 240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2227.62962
If we take 162 away from 240, we end up with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
81 goes into 780 9 times with a remainder of 51.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2227.629629
Subtracting 729 from 780 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
510 divided by 81 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2227.6296296
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 486 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
81 can be fit into 240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2227.62962962
Subtract 162 from 240 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2227.62962962 with a balance of 7.8e-08.
