We look at the division of 1704374 by 746 
We're looking to find how many times 746 goes into 1704374.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 746, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 746

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 746, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 170 / 746

Step 3:
170 divided by 746 is 0 with a remainder of 170.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 170 leaves us with 170.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 170 and continue with: 1704 / 746

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 1704 by 746, we get 2 and a remainder of 212.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 1492 from 1704, we get 212.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 212 and continue: 2123 / 746

On to step 5:
746 goes into 2123 2 times with a remainder of 631.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Deduct 1492 from 2123 and we're left with 631.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 631, then repeat: 6317 / 746

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 6317 by 746, we get 8 and a remainder of 349.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 228.0
Subtracting 5968 from 6317 leaves us with 349.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 349, then repeat: 3494 / 746

On to step 7:
When dividing 3494 by 746, we get 4 with a remainder of 510.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2284.0
If we subtract 2984 from 3494, we get 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5100, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 5100 by 746, we get 6 with a remainder of 624.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2284.6
If we take 4476 away from 5100, we end up with 624.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
746 goes into 6240 8 times with a remainder of 272.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2284.68
The remainder is 272 after subtracting 5968 from 6240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 2720 by 746, we get 3 with a remainder of 482.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2284.683
Subtracting 2238 from 2720 leaves us with 482.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4820, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
4820 divided by 746 is 6 with a remainder of 344.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2284.6836
If we take 4476 away from 4820, we end up with 344.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3440, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
746 can be fit into 3440 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 456.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2284.68364
If we subtract 2984 from 3440, we get 456.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
746 goes into 4560 6 times with a remainder of 84.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2284.683646
If we take 4476 away from 4560, we end up with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
840 divided by 746 is 1 with a remainder of 94.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2284.6836461
The remainder is 94 after subtracting 746 from 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 940 by 746, we get 1 with a remainder of 194.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2284.68364611
Subtracting 746 from 940 leaves us with 194.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1940, and continue the process.

The final result is 2284.68364611 with a remainder of 1.94e-07.
