We're dividing 511709 by 74 
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 511709.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 51 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 51 0 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 0 from 51.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 511 / 74

On to step 3:
74 can be fit into 511 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 444 from 511.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 67, then carry on: 677 / 74

Step 4:
When dividing 677 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 69.0
Subtracting 666 from 677 leaves us with 11.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 110 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
74 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 691.0
If we subtract 74 from 110, we get 36.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 369 / 74

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 369 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 73.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6914.0
Subtracting 296 from 369 leaves us with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
730 divided by 74 is 9 with a remainder of 64.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6914.9
Deduct 666 from 730 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 640 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6914.98
Subtracting 592 from 640 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 480 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6914.986
If we subtract 444 from 480, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 360 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6914.9864
If we take 296 away from 360, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 640 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6914.98648
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 592 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6914.986486
Subtract 444 from 480 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
74 goes into 360 4 times with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6914.9864864
If we subtract 296 from 360, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 640 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6914.98648648
Deduct 592 from 640 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6914.98648648 with a remaining 4.8e-08.
