87747 divided by 74 
We want to divide 87747 by 74.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 74, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 74 away from 87, we end up with 13.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 137 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 137 by 74, we get 1 and a remainder of 63.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 74 from 137 to get 63.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 63, then repeat: 634 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 634 8 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 592 from 634.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 427 / 74

Step 5:
74 goes into 427 5 times with a remainder of 57.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1185.0
Subtracting 370 from 427 leaves us with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Step 6:
570 divided by 74 is 7 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1185.7
If we subtract 518 from 570, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 7:
74 goes into 520 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1185.77
Subtract 518 from 520 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1185.77, and the remainder is 0.002.
