Let's divide 8974849 by 427
We want to divide 8974849 by 427.

On to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 427, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 89 / 427

Let's proceed to step 2:
427 goes into 89 0 times with a remainder of 89.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 89 and we're left with 89.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 89, then repeat: 897 / 427

Step 3:
897 divided by 427 is 2 with a remainder of 43.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 854 from 897 to get 43.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 43 and repeat the process: 434 / 427

Step 4:
If we divide 434 by 427, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 427 from 434.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 427

On to step 5:
78 divided by 427 is 0 with a remainder of 78.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 210.0
Deduct 0 from 78 and we're left with 78.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 78, then carry on: 784 / 427

Advancing to step 6:
427 goes into 784 1 times with a remainder of 357.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2101.0
If we subtract 427 from 784, we get 357.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 357 and continue with: 3579 / 427

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 3579 by 427, we get 8 and a remainder of 163.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21018.0
Subtract 3416 from 3579 to get 163.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1630, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 427 fits into 1630 3 times, leaving a remainder of 349.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21018.3
The remainder is 349 after subtracting 1281 from 1630.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
3490 divided by 427 is 8 with a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 21018.38
Subtract 3416 from 3490 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
427 can be fit into 740 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 313.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21018.381
The remainder is 313 after subtracting 427 from 740.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3130, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 427 fits into 3130 7 times, leaving a remainder of 141.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21018.3817
Subtracting 2989 from 3130 leaves us with 141.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
1410 divided by 427 is 3 with a remainder of 129.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21018.38173
If we take 1281 away from 1410, we end up with 129.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 1290 by 427, we get 3 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21018.381733
Subtract 1281 from 1290 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 21018.381733, with a leftover of 9e-07.
