40739922 divided by 286 
Our goal is to divide 40739922 by 286.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 286 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 286

Moving on to step 2:
40 divided by 286 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 407 / 286

On to step 3:
The number 286 fits into 407 1 times, leaving a remainder of 121.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 286 from 407 to get 121.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 121, then repeat: 1213 / 286

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 286 fits into 1213 4 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 1144 away from 1213, we end up with 69.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 69 and continue with: 699 / 286

Advancing to step 5:
286 goes into 699 2 times with a remainder of 127.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 142.0
If we subtract 572 from 699, we get 127.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 127, then repeat: 1279 / 286

Advancing to step 6:
286 can be fit into 1279 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 135.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1424.0
Subtracting 1144 from 1279 leaves us with 135.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 135 and repeat the process: 1352 / 286

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 1352 by 286, we get 4 with a remainder of 208.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14244.0
If we subtract 1144 from 1352, we get 208.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 208 and continue with: 2082 / 286

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 2082 by 286, we get 7 with a remainder of 80.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 142447.0
If we take 2002 away from 2082, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 800 by 286, we get 2 and a remainder of 228.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 142447.2
If we subtract 572 from 800, we get 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
286 goes into 2280 7 times with a remainder of 278.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 142447.27
Subtract 2002 from 2280 to get 278.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 2780 by 286, we get 9 and a remainder of 206.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 142447.279
Subtracting 2574 from 2780 leaves us with 206.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2060, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
2060 divided by 286 is 7 with a remainder of 58.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 142447.2797
Deduct 2002 from 2060 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 13:
286 goes into 580 2 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 142447.27972
If we take 572 away from 580, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
286 goes into 80 0 times with a remainder of 80.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 142447.27972
If we take 0 away from 80, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
286 goes into 800 2 times with a remainder of 228.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 142447.2797202
Subtracting 572 from 800 leaves us with 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
2280 divided by 286 is 7 with a remainder of 278.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 142447.27972027
Deduct 2002 from 2280 and we're left with 278.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2780, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 142447.27972027, with a leftover of 2.78e-07.
