Let's divide 642947 by 76
We're looking to find how many times 76 goes into 642947.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 76, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 64 / 76

Let's proceed to step 2:
64 divided by 76 is 0 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 64 and we're left with 64.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 64, then repeat: 642 / 76

Going ahead to step 3:
76 can be fit into 642 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 608 from 642 to get 34.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 349 / 76

Step 4:
76 can be fit into 349 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 84.0
Deduct 304 from 349 and we're left with 45.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 454 / 76

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 454 by 76, we get 5 with a remainder of 74.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 845.0
Subtracting 380 from 454 leaves us with 74.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 747 / 76

On to step 6:
The number 76 fits into 747 9 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8459.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 684 from 747.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
630 divided by 76 is 8 with a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8459.8
Subtract 608 from 630 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
76 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 68.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8459.82
If we subtract 152 from 220, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 680 by 76, we get 8 and a remainder of 72.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8459.828
Deduct 608 from 680 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
76 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8459.8289
Subtracting 684 from 720 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 76 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8459.82894
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 304 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 76 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8459.828947
Deduct 532 from 560 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 76 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8459.8289473
Deduct 228 from 280 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 14:
76 can be fit into 520 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8459.82894736
If we take 456 away from 520, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

The final result is 8459.82894736 with a remainder of 6.4e-08.
