We're dividing 274810 by 40 
Our goal is to divide 274810 by 40.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 40 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 40

Moving on to step 2:
40 goes into 27 0 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 274 / 40

Going ahead to step 3:
274 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 240 from 274, we get 34.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 348 / 40

Let's proceed to step 4:
348 divided by 40 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 68.0
If we take 320 away from 348, we end up with 28.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 281 / 40

Moving on to step 5:
281 divided by 40 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 687.0
Subtracting 280 from 281 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 10 / 40

Step 6:
If we divide 10 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6870.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 40 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6870.2
Subtract 80 from 100 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.

Step 8:
200 divided by 40 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6870.25
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.

Advancing to step 9:
0 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6870.25
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 10:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6870.25
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 final result is 6870.25 with a remainder of 0.0.
