We look at the division of 550069 by 40 
We want to divide 550069 by 40.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 40

Let's proceed to step 2:
40 can be fit into 55 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 40 from 55 to get 15.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 150 / 40

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 40 fits into 150 3 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 120 from 150, we get 30.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 300 / 40

On to step 4:
300 divided by 40 is 7 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 137.0
If we take 280 away from 300, we end up with 20.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 206 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
206 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1375.0
Subtracting 200 from 206 leaves us with 6.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 69 / 40

Going ahead to step 6:
69 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13751.0
Subtracting 40 from 69 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 40 fits into 290 7 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 13751.7
Subtracting 280 from 290 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 40 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13751.72
If we subtract 80 from 100, we 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 9:
40 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13751.725
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:
The number 40 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13751.725
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.

Moving on to step 11:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13751.725
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.

After the division, we end up with 13751.725 and a remainder of 0.0.
