If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 856

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 40 by 856, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 408 / 856

Advancing to step 3:
408 divided by 856 is 0 with a remainder of 408.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 408 after subtracting 0 from 408.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 408, then repeat: 4086 / 856

Going ahead to step 4:
4086 divided by 856 is 4 with a remainder of 662.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 3424 from 4086 to get 662.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 662, then carry on: 6629 / 856

Step 5:
The number 856 fits into 6629 7 times, leaving a remainder of 637.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47.0
Subtract 5992 from 6629 to get 637.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 637 and continue with: 6373 / 856

Going ahead to step 6:
6373 divided by 856 is 7 with a remainder of 381.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 477.0
Deduct 5992 from 6373 and we're left with 381.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 381, then carry on: 3817 / 856

Moving on to step 7:
3817 divided by 856 is 4 with a remainder of 393.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4774.0
If we subtract 3424 from 3817, we get 393.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 393 and continue: 3935 / 856

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 3935 by 856, we get 4 with a remainder of 511.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 47744.0
Subtracting 3424 from 3935 leaves us with 511.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5110, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 5110 by 856, we get 5 with a remainder of 830.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 47744.5
If we take 4280 away from 5110, we end up with 830.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
8300 divided by 856 is 9 with a remainder of 596.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47744.59
If we take 7704 away from 8300, we end up with 596.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 856 fits into 5960 6 times, leaving a remainder of 824.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47744.596
If we subtract 5136 from 5960, we get 824.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8240, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 856 fits into 8240 9 times, leaving a remainder of 536.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47744.5969
If we subtract 7704 from 8240, we get 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Step 13:
856 can be fit into 5360 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 224.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47744.59696
If we take 5136 away from 5360, we end up with 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
2240 divided by 856 is 2 with a remainder of 528.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47744.596962
The remainder is 528 after subtracting 1712 from 2240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
856 goes into 5280 6 times with a remainder of 144.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 47744.5969626
Deduct 5136 from 5280 and we're left with 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
856 goes into 1440 1 times with a remainder of 584.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47744.59696261
The remainder is 584 after subtracting 856 from 1440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5840, and continue the process.

Our division results in 47744.59696261 with a remaining 5.84e-07.
