We divide 908853 by 40
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 908853.

Let's proceed to step 1:
40 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 90 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
40 goes into 90 2 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 80 from 90 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 108 / 40

Advancing to step 3:
108 divided by 40 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 80 from 108.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 288 / 40

On to step 4:
288 divided by 40 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 227.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 280 from 288.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 85 / 40

Step 5:
The number 40 fits into 85 2 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2272.0
Subtract 80 from 85 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 40

Advancing to step 6:
53 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22721.0
If we subtract 40 from 53, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 40 fits into 130 3 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22721.3
If we subtract 120 from 130, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 40, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22721.32
If we take 80 away from 100, 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 9:
200 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22721.325
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.

Step 10:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22721.325
Subtract 0 from 0 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 11:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22721.325
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 22721.325 with a remainder of 0.0.
