We're dividing 974742 by 7 
Let's see how many times 7 fits into 974742.

Let's proceed to step 1:
7 goes into 9 1 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 7 from 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 7

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 7, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 21 from 27.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 64 / 7

Moving on to step 3:
7 can be fit into 64 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 139.0
Subtracting 63 from 64 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 7

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 17 by 7, we get 2 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1392.0
If we take 14 away from 17, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 34 / 7

Let's proceed to step 5:
34 divided by 7 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13924.0
Subtracting 28 from 34 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 62 / 7

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 62 by 7, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 139248.0
Subtracting 56 from 62 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.

Moving on to step 7:
7 can be fit into 60 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 139248.8
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 56 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 7, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 139248.85
Subtracting 35 from 40 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 7 fits into 50 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 139248.857
Deduct 49 from 50 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
10 divided by 7 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 139248.8571
Deduct 7 from 10 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
7 can be fit into 30 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 139248.85714
Subtract 28 from 30 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
7 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 139248.857142
Subtract 14 from 20 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.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 60 by 7, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 139248.8571428
Subtracting 56 from 60 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
7 goes into 40 5 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 139248.85714285
Deduct 35 from 40 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Our division results in 139248.85714285 with a remaining 5e-09.
