We look at the division of 608284 by 40 
We want to divide 608284 by 40.

Step 1:
6 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 60 / 40

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 60 by 40, we get 1 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 40 away from 60, we end up with 20.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 208 / 40

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 208 by 40, we get 5 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 200 from 208 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 82 / 40

On to step 4:
82 divided by 40 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 152.0
Deduct 80 from 82 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 40

Step 5:
28 divided by 40 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1520.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 284 / 40

Moving on to step 6:
284 divided by 40 is 7 with a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15207.0
Deduct 280 from 284 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
40 divided by 40 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15207.1
If we take 40 away from 40, we end up 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 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: 15207.1
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:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15207.1
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.

Our division results in 15207.1 with a remaining 0.0.
