We divide 74650971 by 131
We want to divide 74650971 by 131.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 131 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 131

Step 2:
The number 131 fits into 74 0 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 74, we end up with 74.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 746 / 131

On to step 3:
The number 131 fits into 746 5 times, leaving a remainder of 91.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 655 away from 746, we end up with 91.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 91, then carry on: 915 / 131

Step 4:
915 divided by 131 is 6 with a remainder of 129.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 56.0
If we subtract 786 from 915, we get 129.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 129 and continue: 1290 / 131

Let's proceed to step 5:
1290 divided by 131 is 9 with a remainder of 111.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 569.0
If we subtract 1179 from 1290, we get 111.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 111 and repeat the process: 1119 / 131

Let's proceed to step 6:
131 goes into 1119 8 times with a remainder of 71.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5698.0
Subtracting 1048 from 1119 leaves us with 71.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 71, then repeat: 717 / 131

Going ahead to step 7:
131 goes into 717 5 times with a remainder of 62.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 56985.0
Subtract 655 from 717 to get 62.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 621 / 131

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 621 by 131, we get 4 with a remainder of 97.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 569854.0
If we take 524 away from 621, we end up with 97.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 970, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 970 by 131, we get 7 with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 569854.7
If we take 917 away from 970, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
131 goes into 530 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 569854.74
If we take 524 away from 530, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 11:
60 divided by 131 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 569854.74
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 600 by 131, we get 4 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 569854.7404
Subtract 524 from 600 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 131 fits into 760 5 times, leaving a remainder of 105.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 569854.74045
Subtracting 655 from 760 leaves us with 105.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1050, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 1050 by 131, we get 8 and a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 569854.740458
Deduct 1048 from 1050 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
131 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 569854.740458
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
If we divide 200 by 131, we get 1 and a remainder of 69.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 569854.74045801
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 131 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

The final result is 569854.74045801 with a remainder of 6.9e-08.
