We're dividing 74697539 by 601 
Our goal is to divide 74697539 by 601.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 601, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 601

Moving on to step 2:
601 goes into 74 0 times with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 74 to get 74.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 746 / 601

Moving on to step 3:
601 can be fit into 746 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 145.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 145 after subtracting 601 from 746.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 145, then repeat: 1459 / 601

Going ahead to step 4:
1459 divided by 601 is 2 with a remainder of 257.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 1202 away from 1459, we end up with 257.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 257, then repeat: 2577 / 601

On to step 5:
When dividing 2577 by 601, we get 4 with a remainder of 173.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 124.0
Deduct 2404 from 2577 and we're left with 173.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 173 and repeat the process: 1735 / 601

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 1735 by 601, we get 2 and a remainder of 533.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1242.0
Subtract 1202 from 1735 to get 533.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 533, then carry on: 5333 / 601

Advancing to step 7:
5333 divided by 601 is 8 with a remainder of 525.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12428.0
Subtracting 4808 from 5333 leaves us with 525.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 525, then carry on: 5259 / 601

Moving on to step 8:
5259 divided by 601 is 8 with a remainder of 451.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 124288.0
Subtract 4808 from 5259 to get 451.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
601 can be fit into 4510 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 303.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 124288.7
Subtract 4207 from 4510 to get 303.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3030, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 601 fits into 3030 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 124288.75
If we take 3005 away from 3030, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
250 divided by 601 is 0 with a remainder of 250.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 124288.75
Subtract 0 from 250 to get 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 2500 by 601, we get 4 with a remainder of 96.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 124288.7504
Subtract 2404 from 2500 to get 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
960 divided by 601 is 1 with a remainder of 359.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 124288.75041
Subtracting 601 from 960 leaves us with 359.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3590, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 3590 by 601, we get 5 and a remainder of 585.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 124288.750415
If we subtract 3005 from 3590, we get 585.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5850, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
601 can be fit into 5850 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 441.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 124288.7504159
If we subtract 5409 from 5850, we get 441.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
The number 601 fits into 4410 7 times, leaving a remainder of 203.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 124288.75041597
If we take 4207 away from 4410, we end up with 203.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2030, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 124288.75041597, with a leftover of 2.03e-07.
