526837 ÷ 40 
We want to divide 526837 by 40.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 52 / 40

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 52 by 40, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 40 from 52 leaves us with 12.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 126 / 40

Moving on to step 3:
40 can be fit into 126 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 120 from 126, we get 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 40

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 68 by 40, we get 1 and a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 131.0
If we take 40 away from 68, we end up with 28.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 283 / 40

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 283 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1317.0
Deduct 280 from 283 and we're left with 3.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 37 / 40

Moving on to step 6:
40 can be fit into 37 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13170.0
Subtract 0 from 37 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
40 can be fit into 370 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13170.9
If we subtract 360 from 370, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
100 divided by 40 is 2 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 13170.92
Subtracting 80 from 100 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
40 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13170.925
If we subtract 200 from 200, we 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.

Step 10:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13170.925
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13170.925
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.

After the division, we end up with 13170.925 and a remainder of 0.0.
