159463 divided by 74 
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 159463.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
74 can be fit into 159 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 148 from 159 and we're left with 11.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 114 / 74

On to step 4:
When dividing 114 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 40.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 74 from 114 and we're left with 40.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 406 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 74 fits into 406 5 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 215.0
If we take 370 away from 406, we end up with 36.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 363 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
363 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 67.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2154.0
Subtract 296 from 363 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 670 9 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2154.9
Deduct 666 from 670 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2154.9
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left 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 9:
When dividing 400 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2154.905
If we take 370 away from 400, 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2154.9054
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 296 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
74 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2154.9054
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 12:
74 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2154.905405
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
74 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2154.9054054
If we take 296 away from 300, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
74 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2154.9054054
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2154.9054054 with a remaining 4e-08.
