11874 ÷ 74 
We want to divide 11874 by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
74 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 11 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 11 and we're left with 11.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 118 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 44.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 74 from 118 and we're left with 44.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 447 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 447 6 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 444 from 447 to get 3.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 34 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 34 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 160.0
Deduct 0 from 34 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 6:
74 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 160.4
If we take 296 away from 340, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
74 goes into 440 5 times with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 160.45
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 370 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
700 divided by 74 is 9 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 160.459
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 666 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 160.4594
If we take 296 away from 340, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
440 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 160.45945
If we subtract 370 from 440, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 700 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 34.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 160.459459
If we subtract 666 from 700, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 340 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 160.4594594
Subtract 296 from 340 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
74 goes into 440 5 times with a remainder of 70.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 160.45945945
If we take 370 away from 440, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

The final result is 160.45945945 with a remainder of 7e-08.
