Let's divide 461000 by 74
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 461000.

Advancing to step 1:
74 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 74

On to step 2:
If we divide 46 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 46, we end up with 46.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 461 / 74

Step 3:
74 can be fit into 461 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 444 away from 461, we end up with 17.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 170 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 170 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 62.0
Deduct 148 from 170 and we're left with 22.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 220 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
74 can be fit into 220 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 622.0
If we subtract 148 from 220, we get 72.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 720 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 720 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6229.0
Deduct 666 from 720 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 7:
74 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6229.7
If we subtract 518 from 540, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
74 can be fit into 220 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6229.72
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 148 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 720 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6229.729
If we take 666 away from 720, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
74 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6229.7297
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 518 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
74 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6229.72972
If we subtract 148 from 220, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 720 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6229.729729
Deduct 666 from 720 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 540 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6229.7297297
If we subtract 518 from 540, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 74 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6229.72972972
If we take 148 away from 220, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6229.72972972 with a remaining 7.2e-08.
