473464 divided by 40 
We want to figure out the number of times 473464 can be divided by 40.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 40

Step 2:
If we divide 47 by 40, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 40 from 47.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 73 / 40

Going ahead to step 3:
73 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 40 from 73, we get 33.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 334 / 40

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 334 by 40, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtracting 320 from 334 leaves us with 14.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 146 / 40

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 40 fits into 146 3 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1183.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 120 from 146.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 264 / 40

Moving on to step 6:
40 goes into 264 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11836.0
Subtract 240 from 264 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 240 by 40, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11836.6
Subtract 240 from 240 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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 40, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11836.6
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
40 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11836.6
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 11836.6 with a remainder of 0.0.
