We divide 881777 by 40
We want to figure out the number of times 881777 can be divided by 40.

Step 1:
When dividing 8 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 88 / 40

Moving on to step 2:
The number 40 fits into 88 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 80 from 88 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 81 / 40

On to step 3:
If we divide 81 by 40, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we take 80 away from 81, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 40

Moving on to step 4:
40 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 220.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 177 / 40

Step 5:
177 divided by 40 is 4 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2204.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 160 from 177.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 177 / 40

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 177 by 40, we get 4 and a remainder of 17.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22044.0
Subtract 160 from 177 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
170 divided by 40 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22044.4
Subtracting 160 from 170 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
100 divided by 40 is 2 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22044.42
Deduct 80 from 100 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
40 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22044.425
Subtract 200 from 200 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 40 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22044.425
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22044.425
If we subtract 0 from 0, 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 22044.425 with a balance of 0.0.
