We divide 260811 by 40
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 260811.

On to step 1:
40 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 40

Step 2:
The number 40 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 260 / 40

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 260 by 40, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 240 away from 260, we end up with 20.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 208 / 40

Step 4:
40 can be fit into 208 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 65.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 200 from 208.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 81 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 652.0
Deduct 80 from 81 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 40

Let's proceed to step 6:
11 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6520.0
If we subtract 0 from 11, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 40, we get 2 and a remainder of 30.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6520.2
Subtracting 80 from 110 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.

On to step 8:
The number 40 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6520.27
If we take 280 away from 300, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 200 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6520.275
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 200 from 200.
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 10:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6520.275
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.

Step 11:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6520.275
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

Our division results in 6520.275 with a remaining 0.0.
