Let's divide 718219 by 40
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 718219.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 40 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 40

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 71 by 40, we get 1 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 40 from 71 and we're left with 31.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 318 / 40

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 318 by 40, we get 7 and a remainder of 38.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 280 from 318 and we're left with 38.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 382 / 40

Let's proceed to step 4:
382 divided by 40 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 179.0
Deduct 360 from 382 and we're left with 22.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 221 / 40

Moving on to step 5:
221 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 21.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1795.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 200 from 221.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 219 / 40

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 219 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17955.0
If we take 200 away from 219, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 190 by 40, we get 4 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17955.4
Deduct 160 from 190 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 40 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17955.47
Deduct 280 from 300 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 200 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17955.475
If we take 200 away from 200, 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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17955.475
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17955.475
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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 final outcome is 17955.475, with a leftover of 0.0.
