We divide 198417 by 74
Our goal is to divide 198417 by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
1 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
74 can be fit into 19 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 19, we end up with 19.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 198 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
74 can be fit into 198 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 148 away from 198, we end up with 50.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 504 / 74

On to step 4:
If we divide 504 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 444 from 504 leaves us with 60.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 60, then carry on: 601 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
601 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 9.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 268.0
Subtracting 592 from 601 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
97 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2681.0
Deduct 74 from 97 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
230 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2681.3
Subtract 222 from 230 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
74 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2681.31
If we take 74 away from 80, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
60 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2681.31
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
600 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2681.3108
Deduct 592 from 600 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 80 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2681.31081
Subtract 74 from 80 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
74 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2681.31081
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
74 can be fit into 600 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2681.3108108
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 592 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
74 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2681.31081081
Subtracting 74 from 80 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2681.31081081 with a balance of 6e-09.
