200438 divided by 40 
We want to divide 200438 by 40.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 40 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 40

Moving on to step 2:
The number 40 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 200 / 40

On to step 3:
40 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 200 from 200.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 4 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 50.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 43 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 43 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 501.0
Subtracting 40 from 43 leaves us with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 40

Let's proceed to step 6:
38 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5010.0
Deduct 0 from 38 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
40 goes into 380 9 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5010.9
If we subtract 360 from 380, 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.

Step 8:
40 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5010.95
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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 40 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5010.95
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
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: 5010.95
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.

The quotient of the division is 5010.95, and the remainder is 0.0.
