Let's divide 556968 by 40
Let's see how many times 40 fits into 556968.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 40

Moving on to step 2:
55 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 40 from 55, we get 15.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 156 / 40

Moving on to step 3:
40 can be fit into 156 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 120 from 156, we get 36.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 369 / 40

Step 4:
40 goes into 369 9 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 139.0
Subtracting 360 from 369 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 96 / 40

Let's proceed to step 5:
40 can be fit into 96 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1392.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 80 from 96.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 168 / 40

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 168 by 40, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13924.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 160 from 168.
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 7:
If we divide 80 by 40, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13924.2
Subtracting 80 from 80 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 8:
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: 13924.2
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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13924.2
Subtracting 0 from 0 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.

The quotient of the division is 13924.2, and the remainder is 0.0.
