Let's divide 74008799 by 997
Let's see how many times 997 fits into 74008799.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 997, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 74 / 997

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 997, we get 0 with a remainder of 74.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 0 from 74.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 740 / 997

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 997 fits into 740 0 times, leaving a remainder of 740.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 740 after subtracting 0 from 740.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 740 and continue with: 7400 / 997

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 997 fits into 7400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 421.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 421 after subtracting 6979 from 7400.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 421, then repeat: 4218 / 997

Going ahead to step 5:
997 goes into 4218 4 times with a remainder of 230.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74.0
Deduct 3988 from 4218 and we're left with 230.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 230, then carry on: 2307 / 997

Moving on to step 6:
The number 997 fits into 2307 2 times, leaving a remainder of 313.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 742.0
If we take 1994 away from 2307, we end up with 313.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 313, then repeat: 3139 / 997

Step 7:
3139 divided by 997 is 3 with a remainder of 148.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7423.0
Subtract 2991 from 3139 to get 148.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 148 and repeat the process: 1489 / 997

On to step 8:
997 can be fit into 1489 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 492.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74231.0
Subtracting 997 from 1489 leaves us with 492.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
4920 divided by 997 is 4 with a remainder of 932.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74231.4
Subtract 3988 from 4920 to get 932.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9320, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 9320 by 997, we get 9 with a remainder of 347.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 74231.49
Subtracting 8973 from 9320 leaves us with 347.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 997 fits into 3470 3 times, leaving a remainder of 479.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74231.493
The remainder is 479 after subtracting 2991 from 3470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4790, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
997 can be fit into 4790 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 802.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74231.4934
If we take 3988 away from 4790, we end up with 802.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8020, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 8020 by 997, we get 8 with a remainder of 44.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74231.49348
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 7976 from 8020.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 997 fits into 440 0 times, leaving a remainder of 440.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 74231.49348
Subtract 0 from 440 to get 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 4400 by 997, we get 4 and a remainder of 412.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74231.4934804
If we take 3988 away from 4400, we end up with 412.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
4120 divided by 997 is 4 with a remainder of 132.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74231.49348044
If we subtract 3988 from 4120, we get 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

The final result is 74231.49348044 with a remainder of 1.32e-07.
