496585 ÷ 40 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 40 in 496585.

Step 1:
4 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 40

On to step 2:
40 goes into 49 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 40 from 49 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 40

Advancing to step 3:
40 goes into 96 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 80 away from 96, we end up with 16.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 165 / 40

Let's proceed to step 4:
40 can be fit into 165 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 124.0
Subtract 160 from 165 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
58 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1241.0
Subtract 40 from 58 to get 18.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 185 / 40

Moving on to step 6:
The number 40 fits into 185 4 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12414.0
If we subtract 160 from 185, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
40 goes into 250 6 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12414.6
Subtract 240 from 250 to get 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.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12414.62
If we take 80 away from 100, 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 40 fits into 200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12414.625
If we take 200 away from 200, 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.

Advancing to step 10:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12414.625
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12414.625
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 12414.625 with a balance of 0.0.
