We divide 259329 by 40
We're looking to find how many times 40 goes into 259329.

Step 1:
2 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 40

On to step 2:
40 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 25, we get 25.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 259 / 40

On to step 3:
259 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 19.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 240 from 259 and we're left with 19.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 193 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
40 goes into 193 4 times with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 64.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 160 from 193.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 332 / 40

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 332 by 40, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 648.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 320 from 332.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 129 / 40

Let's proceed to step 6:
40 goes into 129 3 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6483.0
Subtracting 120 from 129 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
40 goes into 90 2 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6483.2
Deduct 80 from 90 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
100 divided by 40 is 2 with a remainder of 20.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6483.22
Subtracting 80 from 100 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 6483.22 with a remaining 0.02.
