552755 ÷ 40 
We want to divide 552755 by 40.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 40

On to step 2:
40 can be fit into 55 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 40 away from 55, we end up with 15.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 152 / 40

Step 3:
If we divide 152 by 40, we get 3 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 120 from 152 to get 32.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 327 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 40 fits into 327 8 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 138.0
Subtracting 320 from 327 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 75 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
40 goes into 75 1 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1381.0
If we take 40 away from 75, we end up with 35.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 355 / 40

Step 6:
The number 40 fits into 355 8 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13818.0
Deduct 320 from 355 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 350 by 40, we get 8 with a remainder of 30.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13818.8
Subtracting 320 from 350 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 300 by 40, we get 7 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13818.87
Subtracting 280 from 300 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
200 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13818.875
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.

Step 10:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13818.875
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.

Advancing to step 11:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13818.875
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.

The quotient of the division is 13818.875, and the remainder is 0.0.
