Let's divide 40975540 by 541
We want to divide 40975540 by 541.

Step 1:
541 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
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 541

On to step 2:
40 divided by 541 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 409 / 541

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 409 by 541, we get 0 and a remainder of 409.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 409 after subtracting 0 from 409.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 409 and repeat the process: 4097 / 541

Going ahead to step 4:
541 goes into 4097 7 times with a remainder of 310.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 3787 from 4097 to get 310.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 310, then carry on: 3105 / 541

On to step 5:
If we divide 3105 by 541, we get 5 and a remainder of 400.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 75.0
Subtract 2705 from 3105 to get 400.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 400 and continue: 4005 / 541

Step 6:
If we divide 4005 by 541, we get 7 and a remainder of 218.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 757.0
The remainder is 218 after subtracting 3787 from 4005.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 218 and continue: 2184 / 541

Going ahead to step 7:
541 can be fit into 2184 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7574.0
If we subtract 2164 from 2184, we get 20.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 200 / 541

Going ahead to step 8:
541 goes into 200 0 times with a remainder of 200.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 75740.0
The remainder is 200 after subtracting 0 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
541 goes into 2000 3 times with a remainder of 377.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 75740.3
If we take 1623 away from 2000, we end up with 377.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3770, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
541 goes into 3770 6 times with a remainder of 524.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 75740.36
Subtracting 3246 from 3770 leaves us with 524.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
541 can be fit into 5240 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 371.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 75740.369
If we take 4869 away from 5240, we end up with 371.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3710, and continue the process.

Step 12:
3710 divided by 541 is 6 with a remainder of 464.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 75740.3696
If we take 3246 away from 3710, we end up with 464.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4640, and continue the process.

Step 13:
4640 divided by 541 is 8 with a remainder of 312.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 75740.36968
Deduct 4328 from 4640 and we're left with 312.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3120, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
3120 divided by 541 is 5 with a remainder of 415.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 75740.369685
If we take 2705 away from 3120, we end up with 415.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
The number 541 fits into 4150 7 times, leaving a remainder of 363.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 75740.3696857
The remainder is 363 after subtracting 3787 from 4150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3630, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
3630 divided by 541 is 6 with a remainder of 384.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 75740.36968576
If we subtract 3246 from 3630, we get 384.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 75740.36968576, with a leftover of 3.84e-07.
