We look at the division of 74718987 by 842 
Our goal is to divide 74718987 by 842.

Going ahead to step 1:
7 divided by 842 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 842

Step 2:
842 can be fit into 74 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 74, we get 74.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 747 / 842

Moving on to step 3:
The number 842 fits into 747 0 times, leaving a remainder of 747.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 747 to get 747.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 747, then carry on: 7471 / 842

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 7471 by 842, we get 8 and a remainder of 735.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 6736 from 7471 leaves us with 735.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 735, then repeat: 7358 / 842

Let's proceed to step 5:
7358 divided by 842 is 8 with a remainder of 622.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 88.0
If we take 6736 away from 7358, we end up with 622.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 622, then carry on: 6229 / 842

Let's proceed to step 6:
6229 divided by 842 is 7 with a remainder of 335.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 887.0
The remainder is 335 after subtracting 5894 from 6229.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 335, then repeat: 3358 / 842

On to step 7:
The number 842 fits into 3358 3 times, leaving a remainder of 832.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8873.0
Deduct 2526 from 3358 and we're left with 832.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 832 and repeat the process: 8327 / 842

Advancing to step 8:
842 can be fit into 8327 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 749.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 88739.0
If we take 7578 away from 8327, we end up with 749.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7490, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 7490 by 842, we get 8 with a remainder of 754.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 88739.8
Subtracting 6736 from 7490 leaves us with 754.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7540, and continue the process.

Step 10:
842 goes into 7540 8 times with a remainder of 804.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 88739.88
If we subtract 6736 from 7540, we get 804.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8040, and continue the process.

The final result is 88739.88 with a remainder of 0.804.
