Let's divide 121679 by 40
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 121679.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 40

Let's proceed to step 2:
40 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 121 / 40

On to step 3:
40 goes into 121 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 120 away from 121, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 40

Moving on to step 4:
The number 40 fits into 16 0 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 167 / 40

Step 5:
40 goes into 167 4 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 304.0
Subtract 160 from 167 to get 7.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 79 / 40

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 79 by 40, we get 1 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3041.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 40 from 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 390 by 40, we get 9 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3041.9
If we take 360 away from 390, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 300 by 40, we get 7 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3041.97
Deduct 280 from 300 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 200 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3041.975
Subtracting 200 from 200 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3041.975
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.

Moving on to step 11:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3041.975
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 3041.975 with a remainder of 0.0.
