We divide 40696039 by 288
We want to divide 40696039 by 288.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 288, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 40 / 288

On to step 2:
40 divided by 288 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 406 / 288

On to step 3:
406 divided by 288 is 1 with a remainder of 118.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 288 from 406 to get 118.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 118 and continue: 1189 / 288

Step 4:
If we divide 1189 by 288, we get 4 and a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 1152 from 1189 to get 37.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 376 / 288

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 376 by 288, we get 1 with a remainder of 88.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 141.0
Subtracting 288 from 376 leaves us with 88.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 88, then repeat: 880 / 288

Going ahead to step 6:
288 can be fit into 880 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1413.0
If we subtract 864 from 880, we get 16.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 163 / 288

Advancing to step 7:
288 goes into 163 0 times with a remainder of 163.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14130.0
The remainder is 163 after subtracting 0 from 163.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 163, then repeat: 1639 / 288

Advancing to step 8:
The number 288 fits into 1639 5 times, leaving a remainder of 199.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141305.0
Subtracting 1440 from 1639 leaves us with 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1990, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 288 fits into 1990 6 times, leaving a remainder of 262.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 141305.6
Subtracting 1728 from 1990 leaves us with 262.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 2620 by 288, we get 9 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 141305.69
Deduct 2592 from 2620 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
288 can be fit into 280 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 280.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 141305.69
If we take 0 away from 280, we end up with 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 288 fits into 2800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 208.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 141305.6909
The remainder is 208 after subtracting 2592 from 2800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 2080 by 288, we get 7 and a remainder of 64.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141305.69097
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 2016 from 2080.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
288 goes into 640 2 times with a remainder of 64.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 141305.690972
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
When dividing 640 by 288, we get 2 with a remainder of 64.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 141305.6909722
If we take 576 away from 640, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 141305.6909722 with a balance of 6.4e-07.
