We look at the division of 487753 by 40 
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 487753.

Moving on to step 1:
40 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
40 can be fit into 48 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 40 from 48 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 40

Step 3:
40 can be fit into 87 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 80 away from 87, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 77 / 40

Step 4:
40 goes into 77 1 times with a remainder of 37.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 121.0
Subtracting 40 from 77 leaves us with 37.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 375 / 40

On to step 5:
40 goes into 375 9 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1219.0
Subtracting 360 from 375 leaves us with 15.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 153 / 40

Advancing to step 6:
The number 40 fits into 153 3 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12193.0
If we subtract 120 from 153, we get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 40 fits into 330 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12193.8
Subtracting 320 from 330 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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 40 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12193.82
Deduct 80 from 100 and we're left 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.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12193.825
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12193.825
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12193.825
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 12193.825, and the remainder is 0.0.
