Let's divide 714934 by 40
Our goal is to divide 714934 by 40.

Advancing to step 1:
40 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
40 goes into 71 1 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 40 from 71.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 314 / 40

Going ahead to step 3:
314 divided by 40 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 280 from 314, we get 34.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 349 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
40 goes into 349 8 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 178.0
Subtract 320 from 349 to get 29.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 293 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 293 by 40, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1787.0
If we take 280 away from 293, we end up with 13.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 134 / 40

Step 6:
40 can be fit into 134 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17873.0
If we take 120 away from 134, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 140 by 40, we get 3 and a remainder of 20.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17873.3
Subtract 120 from 140 to get 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 8:
200 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17873.35
If we subtract 200 from 200, 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.

Moving 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: 17873.35
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17873.35
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.

The final result is 17873.35 with a remainder of 0.0.
