Let's divide 42992535 by 40
Our goal is to divide 42992535 by 40.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 40

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 40 fits into 42 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 40 from 42.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 40

Step 3:
29 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 299 / 40

Step 4:
40 goes into 299 7 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107.0
Subtracting 280 from 299 leaves us with 19.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 192 / 40

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 192 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1074.0
If we subtract 160 from 192, we get 32.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 325 / 40

Moving on to step 6:
The number 40 fits into 325 8 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10748.0
Deduct 320 from 325 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 53 / 40

On to step 7:
53 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 107481.0
Deduct 40 from 53 and we're left with 13.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 135 / 40

Step 8:
If we divide 135 by 40, we get 3 and a remainder of 15.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1074813.0
Subtracting 120 from 135 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 40 fits into 150 3 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1074813.3
If we take 120 away from 150, 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.

Step 10:
When dividing 300 by 40, we get 7 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1074813.37
If we subtract 280 from 300, we get 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 11:
When dividing 200 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1074813.375
If we subtract 200 from 200, we get 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 12:
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: 1074813.375
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

Step 13:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1074813.375
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 1074813.375 with a remainder of 0.0.
