We divide 40293819 by 254
We're looking to find how many times 254 goes into 40293819.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 254, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 254

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 40 by 254, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 402 / 254

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 254 fits into 402 1 times, leaving a remainder of 148.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 254 from 402 leaves us with 148.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 148, then repeat: 1489 / 254

Moving on to step 4:
The number 254 fits into 1489 5 times, leaving a remainder of 219.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 1270 from 1489 and we're left with 219.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 219 and repeat the process: 2193 / 254

Let's proceed to step 5:
254 goes into 2193 8 times with a remainder of 161.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 158.0
If we take 2032 away from 2193, we end up with 161.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 161 and repeat the process: 1618 / 254

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 1618 by 254, we get 6 with a remainder of 94.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1586.0
If we subtract 1524 from 1618, we get 94.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 94, then repeat: 941 / 254

Step 7:
254 can be fit into 941 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 179.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15863.0
Subtract 762 from 941 to get 179.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 179, then repeat: 1799 / 254

On to step 8:
If we divide 1799 by 254, we get 7 and a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 158637.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 1778 from 1799.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 210 by 254, we get 0 with a remainder of 210.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 158637.0
Subtracting 0 from 210 leaves us with 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 254 fits into 2100 8 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 158637.08
Subtracting 2032 from 2100 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
254 goes into 680 2 times with a remainder of 172.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 158637.082
If we subtract 508 from 680, we get 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
1720 divided by 254 is 6 with a remainder of 196.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 158637.0826
Subtract 1524 from 1720 to get 196.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
254 goes into 1960 7 times with a remainder of 182.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 158637.08267
Subtracting 1778 from 1960 leaves us with 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

Step 14:
254 goes into 1820 7 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 158637.082677
Deduct 1778 from 1820 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Our division results in 158637.082677 with a remaining 4.2e-06.
