698682 ÷ 40 
We want to figure out the number of times 698682 can be divided by 40.

Step 1:
6 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 69 / 40

Advancing to step 2:
69 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 40 from 69 leaves us with 29.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 298 / 40

Advancing to step 3:
40 goes into 298 7 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 280 from 298, we get 18.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 186 / 40

Moving on to step 4:
186 divided by 40 is 4 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 174.0
Deduct 160 from 186 and we're left with 26.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 268 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
268 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1746.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 240 from 268.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 282 / 40

Going ahead to step 6:
282 divided by 40 is 7 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17467.0
Deduct 280 from 282 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
40 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17467.0
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.

On to step 8:
40 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17467.05
Deduct 200 from 200 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17467.05
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.

Step 10:
The number 40 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17467.05
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.

After the division, we end up with 17467.05 and a remainder of 0.0.
