Let's divide 74897001 by 408
We want to divide 74897001 by 408.

Going ahead to step 1:
408 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 74 / 408

Let's proceed to step 2:
408 can be fit into 74 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 74 to get 74.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 748 / 408

Step 3:
The number 408 fits into 748 1 times, leaving a remainder of 340.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 408 away from 748, we end up with 340.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 340, then repeat: 3409 / 408

Step 4:
408 can be fit into 3409 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 145.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 3264 away from 3409, we end up with 145.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 145, then repeat: 1457 / 408

Let's proceed to step 5:
408 goes into 1457 3 times with a remainder of 233.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 183.0
If we take 1224 away from 1457, we end up with 233.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 233 and repeat the process: 2330 / 408

Moving on to step 6:
2330 divided by 408 is 5 with a remainder of 290.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1835.0
If we subtract 2040 from 2330, we get 290.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 290 and continue with: 2900 / 408

Step 7:
408 can be fit into 2900 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18357.0
Subtract 2856 from 2900 to get 44.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 441 / 408

Moving on to step 8:
441 divided by 408 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 183571.0
If we take 408 away from 441, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
330 divided by 408 is 0 with a remainder of 330.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 183571.0
Subtracting 0 from 330 leaves us with 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
408 goes into 3300 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 183571.08
If we take 3264 away from 3300, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
408 can be fit into 360 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 360.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 183571.08
The remainder is 360 after subtracting 0 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 3600 by 408, we get 8 with a remainder of 336.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 183571.0808
Deduct 3264 from 3600 and we're left with 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 3360 by 408, we get 8 and a remainder of 96.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 183571.08088
Subtracting 3264 from 3360 leaves us with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Our division results in 183571.08088 with a remaining 9.6e-05.
