Let's divide 40896321 by 264
Our goal is to divide 40896321 by 264.

Step 1:
When dividing 4 by 264, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 264

Step 2:
264 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 408 / 264

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 264 fits into 408 1 times, leaving a remainder of 144.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 264 from 408 to get 144.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 144 and repeat the process: 1449 / 264

Moving on to step 4:
1449 divided by 264 is 5 with a remainder of 129.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 1320 from 1449 leaves us with 129.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 129, then carry on: 1296 / 264

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 1296 by 264, we get 4 and a remainder of 240.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 154.0
Deduct 1056 from 1296 and we're left with 240.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 240 and repeat the process: 2403 / 264

Moving on to step 6:
2403 divided by 264 is 9 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1549.0
If we subtract 2376 from 2403, we get 27.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 272 / 264

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 272 by 264, we get 1 with a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15491.0
If we subtract 264 from 272, we get 8.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 264

On to step 8:
When dividing 81 by 264, we get 0 with a remainder of 81.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 154910.0
If we subtract 0 from 81, we get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
264 can be fit into 810 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 154910.3
Subtract 792 from 810 to get 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 10:
180 divided by 264 is 0 with a remainder of 180.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 154910.3
Subtracting 0 from 180 leaves us with 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 1800 by 264, we get 6 with a remainder of 216.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 154910.306
If we subtract 1584 from 1800, we get 216.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
2160 divided by 264 is 8 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 154910.3068
If we subtract 2112 from 2160, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 480 by 264, we get 1 and a remainder of 216.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 154910.30681
Subtracting 264 from 480 leaves us with 216.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
264 goes into 2160 8 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 154910.306818
Deduct 2112 from 2160 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
264 goes into 480 1 times with a remainder of 216.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 154910.3068181
If we subtract 264 from 480, we get 216.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
264 can be fit into 2160 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 154910.30681818
If we subtract 2112 from 2160, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 154910.30681818 with a balance of 4.8e-08.
