144282 ÷ 40 
We're looking to find how many times 40 goes into 144282.

Going ahead to step 1:
40 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 14 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 144 / 40

Advancing to step 3:
40 can be fit into 144 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 120 away from 144, we end up with 24.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 242 / 40

Step 4:
242 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36.0
Deduct 240 from 242 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 360.0
Deduct 0 from 28 and we're left with 28.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 282 / 40

On to step 6:
If we divide 282 by 40, we get 7 and a remainder of 2.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3607.0
If we take 280 away from 282, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 20 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3607.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 8:
40 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3607.05
Subtract 200 from 200 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3607.05
If we take 0 away from 0, 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.

Step 10:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3607.05
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 result is 3607.05 with a remainder of 0.0.
