We're dividing 15689786 by 974 
Let's see how many times 974 fits into 15689786.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 974, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 974

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 15 by 974, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 15, we get 15.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 156 / 974

Let's proceed to step 3:
974 goes into 156 0 times with a remainder of 156.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 156, we get 156.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 156, then repeat: 1568 / 974

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 1568 by 974, we get 1 with a remainder of 594.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 974 from 1568 and we're left with 594.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 594, then repeat: 5949 / 974

Moving on to step 5:
974 goes into 5949 6 times with a remainder of 105.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 5844 from 5949 to get 105.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 105 and continue with: 1057 / 974

Moving on to step 6:
974 can be fit into 1057 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 161.0
If we subtract 974 from 1057, we get 83.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 83, then repeat: 838 / 974

Moving on to step 7:
838 divided by 974 is 0 with a remainder of 838.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1610.0
The remainder is 838 after subtracting 0 from 838.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 838, then repeat: 8386 / 974

Advancing to step 8:
974 can be fit into 8386 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 594.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16108.0
If we take 7792 away from 8386, we end up with 594.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5940, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
974 goes into 5940 6 times with a remainder of 96.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16108.6
The remainder is 96 after subtracting 5844 from 5940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 960 by 974, we get 0 and a remainder of 960.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16108.6
Subtract 0 from 960 to get 960.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 9600 by 974, we get 9 with a remainder of 834.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16108.609
If we take 8766 away from 9600, we end up with 834.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 8340 by 974, we get 8 and a remainder of 548.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16108.6098
If we subtract 7792 from 8340, we get 548.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5480, and continue the process.

Step 13:
5480 divided by 974 is 5 with a remainder of 610.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16108.60985
If we take 4870 away from 5480, we end up with 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6100, and continue the process.

Step 14:
974 goes into 6100 6 times with a remainder of 256.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16108.609856
Subtracting 5844 from 6100 leaves us with 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 2560 by 974, we get 2 and a remainder of 612.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16108.6098562
The remainder is 612 after subtracting 1948 from 2560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
If we divide 6120 by 974, we get 6 and a remainder of 276.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16108.60985626
Subtracting 5844 from 6120 leaves us with 276.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2760, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 16108.60985626 and a remainder of 2.76e-07.
