<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 1441, we need to group it as 41 and 14.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to find n whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 14. We can say n is ‘3’ because 3 × 3 = 9, which is less than 14. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 3, and after subtracting 9 from 14, the<a>remainder</a>is 5.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 41, making the new<a>dividend</a>541. Add the old<a>divisor</a>(3) with the same number (3) to get 6, which will be our new divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>The next step is finding 6n × n ≤ 541. Let us consider n as 8. Now 68 × 8 = 544.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>The next step is finding 6n × n ≤ 541. Let us consider n as 8. Now 68 × 8 = 544.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 541 from 544 to get the difference of -3, and the quotient is 38.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 541 from 544 to get the difference of -3, and the quotient is 38.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a<a>decimal</a>point. Adding the decimal point allows us to add two zeroes to the dividend. Now, the new dividend is 300.</p>

<p><strong>Step 9:</strong>Subtracting 6831 from 9000, we get the result 2169.</p>

<p><strong>Step 11:</strong>Continue doing these steps until we get two numbers after the decimal point. Suppose if there is no decimal values continue till the remainder is zero.</p>
