We divide 334493 by 40
We want to divide 334493 by 40.

Going ahead to step 1:
3 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 33 / 40

Advancing to step 2:
40 can be fit into 33 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 33 leaves us with 33.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 334 / 40

On to step 3:
When dividing 334 by 40, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 320 from 334.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 144 / 40

Moving on to step 4:
144 divided by 40 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 83.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 120 from 144.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 249 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
40 goes into 249 6 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 836.0
Subtracting 240 from 249 leaves us with 9.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 93 / 40

Going ahead to step 6:
40 goes into 93 2 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8362.0
Subtract 80 from 93 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
130 divided by 40 is 3 with a remainder of 10.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8362.3
Subtracting 120 from 130 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 40, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8362.32
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 80 from 100.
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 9:
If we divide 200 by 40, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8362.325
Subtract 200 from 200 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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8362.325
Subtracting 0 from 0 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.

Step 11:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8362.325
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.

The final outcome is 8362.325, with a leftover of 0.0.
