\begin{array}{l}\phantom{1440)}\phantom{1}\\1440\overline{)1920}\\\end{array}
Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 1920
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{1440)}0\phantom{2}\\1440\overline{)1920}\\\end{array}
Since 1 is less than 1440, use the next digit 9 from dividend 1920 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{1440)}0\phantom{3}\\1440\overline{)1920}\\\end{array}
Use the 2^{nd} digit 9 from dividend 1920
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{1440)}00\phantom{4}\\1440\overline{)1920}\\\end{array}
Since 19 is less than 1440, use the next digit 2 from dividend 1920 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{1440)}00\phantom{5}\\1440\overline{)1920}\\\end{array}
Use the 3^{rd} digit 2 from dividend 1920
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{1440)}000\phantom{6}\\1440\overline{)1920}\\\end{array}
Since 192 is less than 1440, use the next digit 0 from dividend 1920 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{1440)}000\phantom{7}\\1440\overline{)1920}\\\end{array}
Use the 4^{th} digit 0 from dividend 1920
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{1440)}0001\phantom{8}\\1440\overline{)1920}\\\phantom{1440)}\underline{\phantom{}1440\phantom{}}\\\phantom{1440)9}480\\\end{array}
Find closest multiple of 1440 to 1920. We see that 1 \times 1440 = 1440 is the nearest. Now subtract 1440 from 1920 to get reminder 480. Add 1 to quotient.
\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }480
Since 480 is less than 1440, stop the division. The reminder is 480. The topmost line 0001 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.
