We divide 40868984 by 740
Let's see how many times 740 fits into 40868984.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 740 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 740

Moving on to step 2:
40 divided by 740 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 408 / 740

Moving on to step 3:
740 goes into 408 0 times with a remainder of 408.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 408 and we're left with 408.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 408 and continue with: 4086 / 740

Going ahead to step 4:
740 can be fit into 4086 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 386.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 3700 away from 4086, we end up with 386.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 386 and continue with: 3868 / 740

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 740 fits into 3868 5 times, leaving a remainder of 168.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55.0
Deduct 3700 from 3868 and we're left with 168.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 168, then repeat: 1689 / 740

Let's proceed to step 6:
1689 divided by 740 is 2 with a remainder of 209.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 552.0
Subtract 1480 from 1689 to get 209.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 209 and repeat the process: 2098 / 740

Advancing to step 7:
2098 divided by 740 is 2 with a remainder of 618.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5522.0
Subtracting 1480 from 2098 leaves us with 618.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 618, then carry on: 6184 / 740

On to step 8:
740 goes into 6184 8 times with a remainder of 264.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55228.0
Subtracting 5920 from 6184 leaves us with 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
740 goes into 2640 3 times with a remainder of 420.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55228.3
Subtract 2220 from 2640 to get 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
740 can be fit into 4200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 500.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55228.35
Subtract 3700 from 4200 to get 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
5000 divided by 740 is 6 with a remainder of 560.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55228.356
If we subtract 4440 from 5000, we get 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 5600 by 740, we get 7 with a remainder of 420.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55228.3567
Deduct 5180 from 5600 and we're left with 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
740 goes into 4200 5 times with a remainder of 500.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55228.35675
Subtract 3700 from 4200 to get 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 5000 by 740, we get 6 and a remainder of 560.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55228.356756
Deduct 4440 from 5000 and we're left with 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5600, and continue the process.

Step 15:
5600 divided by 740 is 7 with a remainder of 420.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55228.3567567
Deduct 5180 from 5600 and we're left with 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
The number 740 fits into 4200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 500.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55228.35675675
Subtracting 3700 from 4200 leaves us with 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 55228.35675675 with a balance of 5e-07.
