We look at the division of 173874 by 70 
Our goal is to divide 173874 by 70.

On to step 1:
70 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 70

Advancing to step 2:
17 divided by 70 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 173 / 70

On to step 3:
When dividing 173 by 70, we get 2 with a remainder of 33.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 140 from 173.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 338 / 70

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 338 by 70, we get 4 with a remainder of 58.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 280 away from 338, we end up with 58.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 58, then repeat: 587 / 70

On to step 5:
When dividing 587 by 70, we get 8 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 248.0
Deduct 560 from 587 and we're left with 27.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 274 / 70

On to step 6:
274 divided by 70 is 3 with a remainder of 64.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2483.0
Deduct 210 from 274 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
70 can be fit into 640 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2483.9
If we subtract 630 from 640, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 70 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2483.91
If we take 70 away from 100, 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 9:
The number 70 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2483.914
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 280 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 200 by 70, we get 2 and a remainder of 60.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2483.9142
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 140 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 11:
600 divided by 70 is 8 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2483.91428
Subtracting 560 from 600 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 70, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2483.914285
If we take 350 away from 400, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 70 fits into 500 7 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2483.9142857
Deduct 490 from 500 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 70 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2483.91428571
Deduct 70 from 100 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 2483.91428571, and the remainder is 3e-08.
