Let's divide 124484 by 40
We want to figure out the number of times 124484 can be divided by 40.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 40

Advancing to step 2:
The number 40 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 12, we get 12.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 124 / 40

Going ahead to step 3:
40 goes into 124 3 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 120 from 124, we get 4.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 44 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
44 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtract 40 from 44 to get 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 40

Moving on to step 5:
40 goes into 48 1 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 311.0
If we take 40 away from 48, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 84 / 40

Step 6:
40 goes into 84 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3112.0
Subtract 80 from 84 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 40 by 40, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3112.1
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 40 from 40.
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 8:
40 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3112.1
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.

Advancing to step 9:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3112.1
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.

The quotient of the division is 3112.1, and the remainder is 0.0.
