Let's divide 817401 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 817401 can be divided by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
74 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 81 / 74

Step 2:
74 goes into 81 1 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 74 from 81.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 77 / 74

On to step 3:
When dividing 77 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 74 from 77 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 34 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 goes into 34 0 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 110.0
Subtract 0 from 34 to get 34.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 340 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
74 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1104.0
If we take 296 away from 340, we end up with 44.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 441 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 441 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11045.0
Subtracting 370 from 441 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
74 can be fit into 710 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11045.9
If we take 666 away from 710, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 8:
74 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11045.95
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 370 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 700 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11045.959
Deduct 666 from 700 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11045.9594
Subtracting 296 from 340 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 11:
74 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11045.95945
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 370 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11045.959459
Deduct 666 from 700 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 340 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11045.9594594
If we take 296 away from 340, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 440 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 70.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11045.95945945
If we subtract 370 from 440, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11045.95945945 and a remainder of 7e-08.
