We're dividing 40701 by 14 
We want to figure out the number of times 40701 can be divided by 14.

On to step 1:
14 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 14

Let's proceed to step 2:
40 divided by 14 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 28 from 40 leaves us with 12.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 127 / 14

Moving on to step 3:
14 can be fit into 127 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 126 from 127.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 10 / 14

Advancing to step 4:
14 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 290.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 101 / 14

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 101 by 14, we get 7 with a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2907.0
Subtracting 98 from 101 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 30 by 14, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2907.2
Subtracting 28 from 30 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
20 divided by 14 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2907.21
Subtracting 14 from 20 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
60 divided by 14 is 4 with a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2907.214
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 56 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
14 can be fit into 40 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2907.2142
Subtracting 28 from 40 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 10:
14 can be fit into 120 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2907.21428
Subtract 112 from 120 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 14 fits into 80 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2907.214285
Subtracting 70 from 80 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
14 can be fit into 100 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2907.2142857
Deduct 98 from 100 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 13:
20 divided by 14 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2907.21428571
Deduct 14 from 20 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2907.21428571, and the remainder is 6e-09.
