We divide 983488 by 74
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 983488.

On to step 1:
74 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 74

Step 2:
When dividing 98 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 74 from 98 to get 24.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 243 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 243 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 222 from 243 and we're left with 21.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 214 / 74

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 214 2 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 132.0
Subtract 148 from 214 to get 66.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 66 and repeat the process: 668 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
74 goes into 668 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1329.0
Subtract 666 from 668 to get 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 74

Let's proceed to step 6:
28 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13290.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13290.3
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 222 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
74 can be fit into 580 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 13290.37
Subtracting 518 from 580 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 620 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 13290.378
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 592 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
74 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13290.3783
Subtract 222 from 280 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
74 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 62.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13290.37837
Deduct 518 from 580 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 620 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13290.378378
If we take 592 away from 620, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13290.3783783
Subtracting 222 from 280 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 580 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 13290.37837837
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 518 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 13290.37837837, and the remainder is 6.2e-08.
