Let's divide 849857 by 74
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 849857.

Let's proceed to step 1:
8 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 84 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
74 goes into 84 1 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 74 from 84.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 109 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 109 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 74 from 109 and we're left with 35.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 358 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 358 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 62.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 114.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 296 from 358.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 62, then carry on: 625 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 625 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1148.0
If we take 592 away from 625, we end up with 33.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 337 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
337 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11484.0
Subtract 296 from 337 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
74 can be fit into 410 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11484.5
If we take 370 away from 410, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 400 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11484.55
Deduct 370 from 400 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.

Our division results in 11484.55 with a remaining 0.03.
