Let's divide 969446 by 40
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 969446.

Step 1:
40 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
40 goes into 96 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 80 from 96, we get 16.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 169 / 40

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 40 fits into 169 4 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 160 from 169 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 94 / 40

Advancing to step 4:
40 can be fit into 94 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 242.0
If we subtract 80 from 94, we get 14.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 144 / 40

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 144 3 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2423.0
If we subtract 120 from 144, we get 24.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 246 / 40

On to step 6:
246 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24236.0
Subtract 240 from 246 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
60 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 20.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24236.1
Deduct 40 from 60 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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 200 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24236.15
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.

Moving on to step 9:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24236.15
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 10:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24236.15
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 24236.15 with a balance of 0.0.
