We look at the division of 40278153 by 901 
Our goal is to divide 40278153 by 901.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 901, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 901

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 40 by 901, we get 0 and 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 (2) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 402 / 901

On to step 3:
402 divided by 901 is 0 with a remainder of 402.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 402 after subtracting 0 from 402.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 402 and continue with: 4027 / 901

Advancing to step 4:
901 goes into 4027 4 times with a remainder of 423.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 423 after subtracting 3604 from 4027.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 423 and continue: 4238 / 901

Step 5:
The number 901 fits into 4238 4 times, leaving a remainder of 634.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 44.0
If we take 3604 away from 4238, we end up with 634.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 634, then carry on: 6341 / 901

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 901 fits into 6341 7 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 447.0
Subtracting 6307 from 6341 leaves us with 34.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 345 / 901

On to step 7:
901 can be fit into 345 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 345.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4470.0
The remainder is 345 after subtracting 0 from 345.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 345, then repeat: 3453 / 901

Let's proceed to step 8:
901 can be fit into 3453 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 750.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44703.0
If we take 2703 away from 3453, we end up with 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7500, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
901 can be fit into 7500 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 292.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 44703.8
The remainder is 292 after subtracting 7208 from 7500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
2920 divided by 901 is 3 with a remainder of 217.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44703.83
If we subtract 2703 from 2920, we get 217.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 2170 by 901, we get 2 with a remainder of 368.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44703.832
If we take 1802 away from 2170, we end up with 368.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3680, and continue the process.

Step 12:
3680 divided by 901 is 4 with a remainder of 76.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 44703.8324
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 3604 from 3680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 760 by 901, we get 0 with a remainder of 760.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 44703.8324
Deduct 0 from 760 and we're left with 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7600, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 901 fits into 7600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 392.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44703.832408
Subtract 7208 from 7600 to get 392.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3920, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
3920 divided by 901 is 4 with a remainder of 316.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 44703.8324084
If we subtract 3604 from 3920, we get 316.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
901 can be fit into 3160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 457.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44703.83240843
Subtracting 2703 from 3160 leaves us with 457.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4570, and continue the process.

Our division results in 44703.83240843 with a remaining 4.57e-07.
