We divide 608935 by 40
The aim is to understand the frequency of 40 in 608935.

Step 1:
6 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 60 / 40

Let's proceed to step 2:
40 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 40 from 60, we get 20.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 208 / 40

Going ahead to step 3:
208 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 200 from 208 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 89 / 40

Step 4:
40 goes into 89 2 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 152.0
Deduct 80 from 89 and we're left with 9.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 93 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 93 2 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1522.0
If we subtract 80 from 93, we get 13.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 135 / 40

Step 6:
If we divide 135 by 40, we get 3 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 15223.0
Subtract 120 from 135 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
40 goes into 150 3 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15223.3
Subtract 120 from 150 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
40 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15223.37
Deduct 280 from 300 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 9:
If we divide 200 by 40, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15223.375
Subtracting 200 from 200 leaves us 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:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15223.375
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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.

Moving on to step 11:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15223.375
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.

Our division results in 15223.375 with a remaining 0.0.
