We divide 40290842 by 947
We're looking to find how many times 947 goes into 40290842.

Let's proceed to step 1:
947 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 947

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 40 by 947, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 402 / 947

On to step 3:
947 goes into 402 0 times with a remainder of 402.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 402 and we're left with 402.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 402, then carry on: 4029 / 947

On to step 4:
When dividing 4029 by 947, we get 4 with a remainder of 241.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 241 after subtracting 3788 from 4029.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 241 and continue with: 2410 / 947

On to step 5:
947 goes into 2410 2 times with a remainder of 516.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 1894 from 2410 leaves us with 516.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 516 and continue: 5168 / 947

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 5168 by 947, we get 5 with a remainder of 433.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 425.0
The remainder is 433 after subtracting 4735 from 5168.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 433 and continue with: 4334 / 947

Step 7:
If we divide 4334 by 947, we get 4 and a remainder of 546.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4254.0
Deduct 3788 from 4334 and we're left with 546.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 546, then repeat: 5462 / 947

On to step 8:
947 goes into 5462 5 times with a remainder of 727.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42545.0
If we take 4735 away from 5462, we end up with 727.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
7270 divided by 947 is 7 with a remainder of 641.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42545.7
The remainder is 641 after subtracting 6629 from 7270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
947 can be fit into 6410 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 728.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42545.76
Subtract 5682 from 6410 to get 728.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 7280 by 947, we get 7 and a remainder of 651.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42545.767
The remainder is 651 after subtracting 6629 from 7280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6510, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
947 can be fit into 6510 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 828.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42545.7676
The remainder is 828 after subtracting 5682 from 6510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 8280 by 947, we get 8 with a remainder of 704.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42545.76768
Deduct 7576 from 8280 and we're left with 704.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7040, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 7040 by 947, we get 7 with a remainder of 411.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42545.767687
If we subtract 6629 from 7040, we get 411.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
947 goes into 4110 4 times with a remainder of 322.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42545.7676874
If we subtract 3788 from 4110, we get 322.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
947 goes into 3220 3 times with a remainder of 379.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42545.76768743
Subtracting 2841 from 3220 leaves us with 379.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3790, and continue the process.

Our division results in 42545.76768743 with a remaining 3.79e-07.
