33187 ÷ 40 
Our goal is to divide 33187 by 40.

Let's proceed to step 1:
40 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 33 / 40

Moving on to step 2:
40 goes into 33 0 times with a remainder of 33.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 33 to get 33.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 331 / 40

Moving on to step 3:
40 can be fit into 331 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 320 from 331.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 40

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 118 by 40, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 82.0
Deduct 80 from 118 and we're left with 38.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 387 / 40

On to step 5:
When dividing 387 by 40, we get 9 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 829.0
If we take 360 away from 387, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
The number 40 fits into 270 6 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 829.6
If we take 240 away from 270, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
40 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 829.67
If we take 280 away from 300, we end up with 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:
40 can be fit into 200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 829.675
If we subtract 200 from 200, 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.

Step 9:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 829.675
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 40, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 829.675
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.

Our division results in 829.675 with a remaining 0.0.
