We divide 21606491 by 474
We're looking to find how many times 474 goes into 21606491.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 474, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 21 / 474

Step 2:
474 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 216 / 474

On to step 3:
474 goes into 216 0 times with a remainder of 216.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 216 leaves us with 216.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 216, then carry on: 2160 / 474

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 2160 by 474, we get 4 with a remainder of 264.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 1896 from 2160 leaves us with 264.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 264, then carry on: 2646 / 474

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 474 fits into 2646 5 times, leaving a remainder of 276.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 45.0
The remainder is 276 after subtracting 2370 from 2646.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 276 and repeat the process: 2764 / 474

Step 6:
The number 474 fits into 2764 5 times, leaving a remainder of 394.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 455.0
The remainder is 394 after subtracting 2370 from 2764.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 394 and repeat the process: 3949 / 474

Going ahead to step 7:
3949 divided by 474 is 8 with a remainder of 157.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4558.0
If we subtract 3792 from 3949, we get 157.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 157, then repeat: 1571 / 474

Step 8:
474 goes into 1571 3 times with a remainder of 149.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 45583.0
If we take 1422 away from 1571, we end up with 149.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1490, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 1490 by 474, we get 3 with a remainder of 68.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 45583.3
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 1422 from 1490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
680 divided by 474 is 1 with a remainder of 206.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 45583.31
The remainder is 206 after subtracting 474 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2060, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
2060 divided by 474 is 4 with a remainder of 164.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 45583.314
Subtracting 1896 from 2060 leaves us with 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 474 fits into 1640 3 times, leaving a remainder of 218.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 45583.3143
If we take 1422 away from 1640, we end up with 218.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 2180 by 474, we get 4 with a remainder of 284.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 45583.31434
The remainder is 284 after subtracting 1896 from 2180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2840, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
2840 divided by 474 is 5 with a remainder of 470.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 45583.314345
Deduct 2370 from 2840 and we're left with 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4700, and continue the process.

Step 15:
474 goes into 4700 9 times with a remainder of 434.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 45583.3143459
The remainder is 434 after subtracting 4266 from 4700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
474 goes into 4340 9 times with a remainder of 74.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 45583.31434599
Subtracting 4266 from 4340 leaves us with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

The final result is 45583.31434599 with a remainder of 7.4e-08.
