Let's divide 457597 by 40
We want to divide 457597 by 40.

Moving on to step 1:
4 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 40

On to step 2:
40 can be fit into 45 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 40 from 45.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 57 / 40

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 57 by 40, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 40 from 57, we get 17.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 175 / 40

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 40 fits into 175 4 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 114.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 160 from 175.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 159 / 40

Moving on to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 159 3 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1143.0
Subtract 120 from 159 to get 39.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 397 / 40

Going ahead to step 6:
40 goes into 397 9 times with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11439.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 360 from 397.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
40 can be fit into 370 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11439.9
Subtract 360 from 370 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 100 by 40, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11439.92
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 80 from 100.
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:
The number 40 fits into 200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11439.925
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.

Step 10:
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: 11439.925
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.

Step 11:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11439.925
If we subtract 0 from 0, 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.

After the division, we end up with 11439.925 and a remainder of 0.0.
