Let's divide 772872 by 74
Our goal is to divide 772872 by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 77 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 goes into 77 1 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 74 from 77, we get 3.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 32 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 32 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 32 and we're left with 32.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 328 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 328 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 104.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 296 from 328.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 327 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
327 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1044.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 296 from 327.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 312 / 74

On to step 6:
74 can be fit into 312 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10444.0
If we take 296 away from 312, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
74 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10444.2
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 148 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 120 by 74, we get 1 and a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10444.21
If we subtract 74 from 120, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
460 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10444.216
Deduct 444 from 460 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10444.2162
Deduct 148 from 160 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
74 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10444.21621
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 74 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 460 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10444.216216
If we subtract 444 from 460, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10444.2162162
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 148 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10444.21621621
Subtract 74 from 120 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Our division results in 10444.21621621 with a remaining 4.6e-08.
