We're dividing 289468 by 81 
We're looking to find how many times 81 goes into 289468.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 81, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 81

On to step 2:
81 goes into 28 0 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 289 / 81

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 289 by 81, we get 3 and a remainder of 46.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 243 from 289.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 464 / 81

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 81 fits into 464 5 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we subtract 405 from 464, we get 59.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 59 and continue: 596 / 81

Moving on to step 5:
81 goes into 596 7 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 357.0
Deduct 567 from 596 and we're left with 29.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 298 / 81

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 81 fits into 298 3 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3573.0
If we subtract 243 from 298, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
81 can be fit into 550 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3573.6
If we take 486 away from 550, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
81 goes into 640 7 times with a remainder of 73.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3573.67
Subtracting 567 from 640 leaves us with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Step 9:
730 divided by 81 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3573.679
Subtracting 729 from 730 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
10 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3573.679
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 11:
100 divided by 81 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3573.67901
If we take 81 away from 100, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 190 by 81, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3573.679012
Subtracting 162 from 190 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 280 by 81, we get 3 with a remainder of 37.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3573.6790123
Subtract 243 from 280 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
81 goes into 370 4 times with a remainder of 46.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3573.67901234
Subtracting 324 from 370 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3573.67901234 with a remaining 4.6e-08.
