We look at the division of 388627 by 74 
We want to divide 388627 by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 74

On to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 388 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
388 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 370 from 388 to get 18.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 186 / 74

Step 4:
If we divide 186 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52.0
Deduct 148 from 186 and we're left with 38.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 382 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
74 can be fit into 382 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 525.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 370 from 382.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
127 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 53.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5251.0
If we subtract 74 from 127, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 530 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5251.7
If we subtract 518 from 530, we get 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 8:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5251.71
Deduct 74 from 120 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 9:
74 can be fit into 460 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5251.716
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.

Advancing 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: 5251.7162
If we subtract 148 from 160, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5251.71621
Deduct 74 from 120 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 460 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5251.716216
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5251.7162162
Subtract 148 from 160 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5251.71621621
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.

The quotient of the division is 5251.71621621, and the remainder is 4.6e-08.
