We divide 48420 by 74
Our goal is to divide 48420 by 74.

Advancing to step 1:
74 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 74

On to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 48 leaves us with 48.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 484 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 484 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 444 away from 484, we end up with 40.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 402 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
402 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 65.0
Subtracting 370 from 402 leaves us with 32.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 320 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
320 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 654.0
Subtracting 296 from 320 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
The number 74 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 654.3
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 222 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 7:
74 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 654.32
If we take 148 away from 180, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 320 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 654.324
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 296 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 654.3243
If we take 222 away from 240, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 10:
74 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 654.32432
Deduct 148 from 180 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
320 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 654.324324
Subtract 296 from 320 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
240 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 654.3243243
Subtracting 222 from 240 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
74 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 654.32432432
Subtract 148 from 180 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 654.32432432 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
