606898 divided by 40 
We want to figure out the number of times 606898 can be divided by 40.

On to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 60 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 40 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 40 from 60 leaves us with 20.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 206 / 40

Let's proceed to step 3:
40 can be fit into 206 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 200 from 206, we get 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 40

Advancing to step 4:
The number 40 fits into 68 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 151.0
If we subtract 40 from 68, we get 28.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 289 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
40 can be fit into 289 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1517.0
Subtracting 280 from 289 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 40

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 40 fits into 98 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15172.0
Subtracting 80 from 98 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 180 by 40, we get 4 and a remainder of 20.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15172.4
Subtracting 160 from 180 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
40 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15172.45
Subtracting 200 from 200 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15172.45
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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 10:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15172.45
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.

Our division results in 15172.45 with a remaining 0.0.
