We divide 599056 by 40
We want to divide 599056 by 40.

On to step 1:
40 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 59 / 40

On to step 2:
If we divide 59 by 40, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 40 from 59, we get 19.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 199 / 40

Step 3:
199 divided by 40 is 4 with a remainder of 39.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 160 from 199.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 390 / 40

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 390 by 40, we get 9 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 149.0
Subtract 360 from 390 to get 30.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 305 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 305 7 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1497.0
Subtract 280 from 305 to get 25.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 256 / 40

On to step 6:
The number 40 fits into 256 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14976.0
Deduct 240 from 256 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
40 can be fit into 160 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14976.4
Subtracting 160 from 160 leaves us 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 8:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14976.4
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.

Advancing to step 9:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14976.4
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us 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.

The quotient of the division is 14976.4, and the remainder is 0.0.
