We're dividing 1489784 by 74 
We want to figure out the number of times 1489784 can be divided by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
74 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 14 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 148 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
148 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 148 away from 148, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 9 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
97 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 201.0
Subtract 74 from 97 to get 23.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 238 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 238 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2013.0
If we subtract 222 from 238, we get 16.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 164 / 74

Step 7:
When dividing 164 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20132.0
Subtracting 148 from 164 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
74 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20132.2
If we take 148 away from 160, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
120 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 46.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20132.21
Subtracting 74 from 120 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 460 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20132.216
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 444 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20132.2162
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 148 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20132.21621
If we take 74 away from 120, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 460 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20132.216216
Deduct 444 from 460 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 14:
74 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20132.2162162
If we take 148 away from 160, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20132.21621621
Deduct 74 from 120 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Our division results in 20132.21621621 with a remaining 4.6e-08.
