We look at the division of 717710 by 40 
We're looking to find how many times 40 goes into 717710.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 71 by 40, we get 1 with a remainder of 31.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 40 from 71, we get 31.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 317 / 40

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 317 by 40, we get 7 and a remainder of 37.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 280 from 317 and we're left with 37.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 377 / 40

Let's proceed to step 4:
40 can be fit into 377 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 179.0
If we subtract 360 from 377, we get 17.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 171 / 40

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 171 by 40, we get 4 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1794.0
Subtracting 160 from 171 leaves us with 11.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 110 / 40

Let's proceed to step 6:
110 divided by 40 is 2 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17942.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 80 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 40 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17942.7
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.

Step 8:
If we divide 200 by 40, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17942.75
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.

On 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: 17942.75
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17942.75
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.

The final result is 17942.75 with a remainder of 0.0.
