697866 divided by 40 
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 697866.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 69 / 40

Advancing to step 2:
69 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 40 from 69 and we're left with 29.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 297 / 40

Step 3:
40 goes into 297 7 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 280 away from 297, we end up with 17.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 178 / 40

Step 4:
40 goes into 178 4 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 174.0
If we subtract 160 from 178, we get 18.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 186 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 186 by 40, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1744.0
Subtract 160 from 186 to get 26.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 266 / 40

Let's proceed to step 6:
266 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17446.0
If we take 240 away from 266, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
40 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17446.6
Deduct 240 from 260 and we're left 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 8:
200 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17446.65
If we subtract 200 from 200, we 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.

On to step 9:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17446.65
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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17446.65
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.

The quotient of the division is 17446.65, and the remainder is 0.0.
