40408477 divided by 98 
We want to figure out the number of times 40408477 can be divided by 98.

On to step 1:
98 goes into 4 0 times with 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.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 98

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 40 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 404 / 98

On to step 3:
98 can be fit into 404 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 392 from 404 and we're left with 12.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 120 / 98

Step 4:
98 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we take 98 away from 120, we end up with 22.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 228 / 98

Going ahead to step 5:
228 divided by 98 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 412.0
Subtract 196 from 228 to get 32.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 324 / 98

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 324 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4123.0
Deduct 294 from 324 and we're left with 30.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 307 / 98

Advancing to step 7:
98 can be fit into 307 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41233.0
Subtract 294 from 307 to get 13.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 137 / 98

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 137 by 98, we get 1 and a remainder of 39.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 412331.0
Subtracting 98 from 137 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 390 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 96.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 412331.3
Deduct 294 from 390 and we're left with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 960 by 98, we get 9 and a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 412331.39
Subtracting 882 from 960 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
98 can be fit into 780 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 94.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 412331.397
If we subtract 686 from 780, we get 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
98 can be fit into 940 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 412331.3979
If we take 882 away from 940, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 580 by 98, we get 5 and a remainder of 90.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 412331.39795
Subtract 490 from 580 to get 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
98 goes into 900 9 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 412331.397959
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 882 from 900.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
98 goes into 180 1 times with a remainder of 82.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 412331.3979591
Subtract 98 from 180 to get 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
98 goes into 820 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 412331.39795918
If we take 784 away from 820, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 412331.39795918 and a remainder of 3.6e-08.
