We divide 66260 by 40
We want to divide 66260 by 40.

Let's proceed to step 1:
40 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 66 / 40

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 66 by 40, we get 1 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 40 from 66.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 262 / 40

Step 3:
262 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 240 from 262 and we're left with 22.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 226 / 40

Moving on to step 4:
The number 40 fits into 226 5 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 165.0
Deduct 200 from 226 and we're left with 26.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 260 / 40

Moving on to step 5:
40 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1656.0
If we take 240 away from 260, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 6:
40 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1656.5
Deduct 200 from 200 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 7:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1656.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1656.5
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.

Our division results in 1656.5 with a remaining 0.0.
