Let's divide 52453 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 52453 can be divided by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 52 0 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 52 to get 52.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 524 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
74 goes into 524 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 518 from 524, we get 6.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 65 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 goes into 65 0 times with a remainder of 65.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 70.0
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 0 from 65.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 653 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 74 fits into 653 8 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 708.0
If we take 592 away from 653, we end up with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Step 6:
74 goes into 610 8 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 708.8
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 592 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 180 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 708.82
If we subtract 148 from 180, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 8:
320 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 708.824
Subtracting 296 from 320 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
240 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 708.8243
Deduct 222 from 240 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
74 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 708.82432
Subtracting 148 from 180 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 74 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 708.824324
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 296 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 708.8243243
Deduct 222 from 240 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 708.82432432
Deduct 148 from 180 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 708.82432432 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
