We divide 545237 by 40
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 545237.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 40

Step 2:
40 goes into 54 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 40 away from 54, we end up with 14.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 145 / 40

Let's proceed to step 3:
40 goes into 145 3 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 120 from 145.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 252 / 40

Moving on to step 4:
252 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 136.0
If we subtract 240 from 252, we get 12.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 123 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
123 divided by 40 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1363.0
Deduct 120 from 123 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 40

Step 6:
When dividing 37 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 37.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13630.0
Subtracting 0 from 37 leaves us with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 370 by 40, we get 9 with a remainder of 10.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13630.9
If we take 360 away from 370, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
The number 40 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13630.92
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 80 from 100.
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 9:
When dividing 200 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13630.925
If we take 200 away from 200, 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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13630.925
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.

Advancing 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: 13630.925
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 13630.925 with a balance of 0.0.
