We divide 908743 by 40
Our goal is to divide 908743 by 40.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 40 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 90 / 40

On to step 2:
The number 40 fits into 90 2 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 80 from 90.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 108 / 40

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 108 by 40, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we take 80 away from 108, we end up with 28.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 287 / 40

On to step 4:
40 can be fit into 287 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 227.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 280 from 287.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 40

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 74 1 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2271.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 40 from 74.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 343 / 40

Going ahead to step 6:
40 goes into 343 8 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22718.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 320 from 343.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 230 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22718.5
Subtracting 200 from 230 leaves us 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 8:
40 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22718.57
If we take 280 away from 300, we end up 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.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22718.575
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
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: 22718.575
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22718.575
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.

After the division, we end up with 22718.575 and a remainder of 0.0.
