We're dividing 682481 by 40 
We want to figure out the number of times 682481 can be divided by 40.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 40 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 68 / 40

Step 2:
40 goes into 68 1 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 40 from 68.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 282 / 40

Step 3:
The number 40 fits into 282 7 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 280 from 282, we get 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
40 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 170.0
Deduct 0 from 24 and we're left with 24.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 248 / 40

On to step 5:
248 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1706.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 240 from 248.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 40

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 81 by 40, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17062.0
If we take 80 away from 81, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 40 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17062.0
If we subtract 0 from 10, 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 100 by 40, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 17062.02
Subtract 80 from 100 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.

Moving on to step 9:
40 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17062.025
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 10:
The number 40 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17062.025
If we subtract 0 from 0, 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 11:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17062.025
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 17062.025, and the remainder is 0.0.
