We're dividing 466872 by 40 
We want to figure out the number of times 466872 can be divided by 40.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 40 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 46 / 40

Let's proceed to step 2:
46 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 40 away from 46, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 66 / 40

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 66 by 40, we get 1 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 40 from 66.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 268 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
268 divided by 40 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 116.0
If we take 240 away from 268, we end up with 28.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 287 / 40

Advancing to step 5:
40 goes into 287 7 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1167.0
If we subtract 280 from 287, we get 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 40

On to step 6:
72 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 32.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11671.0
Subtract 40 from 72 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 7:
40 can be fit into 320 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11671.8
Subtracting 320 from 320 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.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11671.8
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11671.8
Deduct 0 from 0 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.

The final result is 11671.8 with a remainder of 0.0.
