Let's divide 798982 by 74
Let's see how many times 74 fits into 798982.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 79 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 79 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 74 from 79 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 74

Step 3:
74 goes into 58 0 times with a remainder of 58.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 58 and we're left with 58.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 589 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 589 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 71.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107.0
Subtracting 518 from 589 leaves us with 71.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 718 / 74

Step 5:
When dividing 718 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1079.0
If we subtract 666 from 718, we get 52.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 522 / 74

On to step 6:
74 goes into 522 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10797.0
If we take 518 away from 522, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10797.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
74 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10797.05
Subtract 370 from 400 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
74 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10797.054
If we take 296 away from 300, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
74 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10797.054
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10797.05405
Subtracting 370 from 400 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
74 can be fit into 300 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10797.054054
Deduct 296 from 300 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
40 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10797.054054
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 400 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10797.05405405
Subtracting 370 from 400 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 10797.05405405, and the remainder is 3e-08.
