6804986 divided by 40 
We want to divide 6804986 by 40.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
68 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 40 from 68 leaves us with 28.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 280 / 40

Advancing to step 3:
40 goes into 280 7 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 280 from 280.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 4 / 40

Moving on to step 4:
40 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 170.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 40

On to step 5:
If we divide 49 by 40, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1701.0
If we take 40 away from 49, we end up with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 40

Advancing to step 6:
The number 40 fits into 98 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17012.0
Subtracting 80 from 98 leaves us with 18.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 186 / 40

Moving on to step 7:
The number 40 fits into 186 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170124.0
Deduct 160 from 186 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
40 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170124.6
Subtract 240 from 260 to get 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 9:
If we divide 200 by 40, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170124.65
If we subtract 200 from 200, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 170124.65
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 40 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 170124.65
Subtracting 0 from 0 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.

After the division, we end up with 170124.65 and a remainder of 0.0.
