We're dividing 578688 by 74 
We want to figure out the number of times 578688 can be divided by 74.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 can be fit into 57 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 57, we end up with 57.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 578 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
The number 74 fits into 578 7 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 518 from 578.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 606 / 74

Step 4:
When dividing 606 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78.0
If we take 592 away from 606, we end up with 14.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 148 / 74

Step 5:
148 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 782.0
Subtract 148 from 148 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 74

On to step 6:
When dividing 8 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7820.0
Deduct 0 from 8 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7820.1
If we subtract 74 from 80, we 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.

On to step 8:
74 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7820.1
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 9:
600 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7820.108
If we take 592 away from 600, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
80 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7820.1081
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.

Step 11:
When dividing 60 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7820.1081
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
74 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7820.108108
If we take 592 away from 600, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 13:
74 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7820.1081081
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 14:
74 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7820.1081081
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 7820.1081081 and a remainder of 6e-08.
