We divide 40578484 by 847
We want to figure out the number of times 40578484 can be divided by 847.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 847 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 847

Step 2:
847 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 405 / 847

Step 3:
When dividing 405 by 847, we get 0 with a remainder of 405.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 405 leaves us with 405.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 405 and continue with: 4057 / 847

Step 4:
When dividing 4057 by 847, we get 4 with a remainder of 669.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 3388 from 4057 leaves us with 669.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 669, then repeat: 6698 / 847

Let's proceed to step 5:
6698 divided by 847 is 7 with a remainder of 769.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47.0
Deduct 5929 from 6698 and we're left with 769.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 769, then carry on: 7694 / 847

Going ahead to step 6:
847 can be fit into 7694 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 479.0
Subtract 7623 from 7694 to get 71.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 71 and repeat the process: 718 / 847

Moving on to step 7:
847 goes into 718 0 times with a remainder of 718.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4790.0
The remainder is 718 after subtracting 0 from 718.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 718, then carry on: 7184 / 847

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 7184 by 847, we get 8 and a remainder of 408.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47908.0
If we subtract 6776 from 7184, we get 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
847 goes into 4080 4 times with a remainder of 692.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 47908.4
Deduct 3388 from 4080 and we're left with 692.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 847 fits into 6920 8 times, leaving a remainder of 144.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47908.48
The remainder is 144 after subtracting 6776 from 6920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Step 11:
847 can be fit into 1440 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 593.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47908.481
The remainder is 593 after subtracting 847 from 1440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5930, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
847 goes into 5930 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47908.4817
If we take 5929 away from 5930, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 10 by 847, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47908.4817
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 100 by 847, we get 0 and a remainder of 100.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47908.4817
Subtract 0 from 100 to get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 47908.4817, with a leftover of 1e-05.
