We look at the division of 400747 by 74 
We want to divide 400747 by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 40 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 400 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
74 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 370 from 400 and we're left with 30.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 307 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
74 can be fit into 307 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtract 296 from 307 to get 11.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 114 / 74

Step 5:
114 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 40.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 541.0
Subtracting 74 from 114 leaves us with 40.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 407 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 407 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5415.0
Deduct 370 from 407 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 74 fits into 370 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5415.5
Subtracting 370 from 370 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
74 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5415.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
0 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5415.5
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5415.5 with a remaining 0.0.
