974462 ÷ 7 
We want to figure out the number of times 974462 can be divided by 7.

Moving on to step 1:
7 can be fit into 9 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 7 from 9 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 7

On to step 2:
7 can be fit into 27 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 21 from 27.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 64 / 7

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 7 fits into 64 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 139.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 63 from 64.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 7

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 7 fits into 14 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1392.0
If we take 14 away from 14, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 6 / 7

Let's proceed to step 5:
7 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13920.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 62 / 7

Step 6:
7 goes into 62 8 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 139208.0
Subtracting 56 from 62 leaves us 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 7:
When dividing 60 by 7, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 139208.8
Subtracting 56 from 60 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 7, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 139208.85
Subtract 35 from 40 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 50 by 7, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 139208.857
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 49 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 7 fits into 10 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 139208.8571
If we take 7 away from 10, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 7 fits into 30 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 139208.85714
Subtracting 28 from 30 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
7 can be fit into 20 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 139208.857142
Deduct 14 from 20 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 13:
7 can be fit into 60 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 139208.8571428
If we take 56 away from 60, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 40 by 7, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 139208.85714285
Subtract 35 from 40 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

The final result is 139208.85714285 with a remainder of 5e-09.
