Let's divide 40723577 by 698
Our goal is to divide 40723577 by 698.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 698, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 698

Advancing to step 2:
698 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 407 / 698

Step 3:
The number 698 fits into 407 0 times, leaving a remainder of 407.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 407, we end up with 407.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 407, then carry on: 4072 / 698

Moving on to step 4:
4072 divided by 698 is 5 with a remainder of 582.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 3490 from 4072 and we're left with 582.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 582 and continue: 5823 / 698

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 5823 by 698, we get 8 with a remainder of 239.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58.0
The remainder is 239 after subtracting 5584 from 5823.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 239 and repeat the process: 2395 / 698

Step 6:
When dividing 2395 by 698, we get 3 with a remainder of 301.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 583.0
If we subtract 2094 from 2395, we get 301.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 301, then repeat: 3017 / 698

Let's proceed to step 7:
3017 divided by 698 is 4 with a remainder of 225.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5834.0
Subtract 2792 from 3017 to get 225.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 225, then repeat: 2257 / 698

On to step 8:
If we divide 2257 by 698, we get 3 and a remainder of 163.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58343.0
Deduct 2094 from 2257 and we're left with 163.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1630, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
1630 divided by 698 is 2 with a remainder of 234.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58343.2
Deduct 1396 from 1630 and we're left with 234.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2340, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 2340 by 698, we get 3 with a remainder of 246.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58343.23
If we subtract 2094 from 2340, we get 246.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 2460 by 698, we get 3 with a remainder of 366.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58343.233
Deduct 2094 from 2460 and we're left with 366.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3660, and continue the process.

The final result is 58343.233 with a remainder of 0.0366.
