We divide 229042 by 40
We want to divide 229042 by 40.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 40

Advancing to step 2:
The number 40 fits into 22 0 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 22, we get 22.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 229 / 40

Step 3:
When dividing 229 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 200 from 229 leaves us with 29.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 290 / 40

Let's proceed to step 4:
290 divided by 40 is 7 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we take 280 away from 290, we end up with 10.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 104 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 104 by 40, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 572.0
Deduct 80 from 104 and we're left with 24.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 242 / 40

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 242 by 40, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5726.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 240 from 242.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
40 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5726.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
200 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5726.05
Subtracting 200 from 200 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5726.05
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5726.05
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5726.05, with a leftover of 0.0.
