40726917 divided by 227 
Our goal is to divide 40726917 by 227.

Let's proceed to step 1:
227 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 227

Moving on to step 2:
40 divided by 227 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 407 / 227

Step 3:
When dividing 407 by 227, we get 1 with a remainder of 180.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 227 from 407, we get 180.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 180 and continue with: 1802 / 227

On to step 4:
1802 divided by 227 is 7 with a remainder of 213.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 1589 away from 1802, we end up with 213.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 213 and continue: 2136 / 227

Moving on to step 5:
227 goes into 2136 9 times with a remainder of 93.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 179.0
If we take 2043 away from 2136, we end up with 93.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 93 and continue with: 939 / 227

Advancing to step 6:
939 divided by 227 is 4 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1794.0
Subtract 908 from 939 to get 31.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 311 / 227

Step 7:
The number 227 fits into 311 1 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17941.0
Subtract 227 from 311 to get 84.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 84, then repeat: 847 / 227

Going ahead to step 8:
847 divided by 227 is 3 with a remainder of 166.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 179413.0
Deduct 681 from 847 and we're left with 166.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
227 can be fit into 1660 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 179413.7
Subtract 1589 from 1660 to get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
227 can be fit into 710 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 179413.73
If we subtract 681 from 710, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 227 fits into 290 1 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 179413.731
Subtracting 227 from 290 leaves us with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 630 by 227, we get 2 and a remainder of 176.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 179413.7312
If we take 454 away from 630, we end up with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 1760 by 227, we get 7 and a remainder of 171.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 179413.73127
If we take 1589 away from 1760, we end up with 171.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
227 goes into 1710 7 times with a remainder of 121.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 179413.731277
Subtracting 1589 from 1710 leaves us with 121.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1210, and continue the process.

Our division results in 179413.731277 with a remaining 1.21e-05.
