Let's divide 64497 by 74
We want to divide 64497 by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
74 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 64 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 64 0 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 64, we get 64.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 64 and continue with: 644 / 74

Step 3:
74 goes into 644 8 times with a remainder of 52.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 592 from 644.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 529 / 74

Step 4:
The number 74 fits into 529 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 87.0
Deduct 518 from 529 and we're left with 11.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 117 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
74 goes into 117 1 times with a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 871.0
Deduct 74 from 117 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Step 6:
430 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 871.5
Deduct 370 from 430 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
74 can be fit into 600 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 871.58
If we subtract 592 from 600, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 8:
74 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 871.581
Subtract 74 from 80 to get 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 9:
60 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 871.581
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
600 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 871.58108
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 592 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
80 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 871.581081
Subtracting 74 from 80 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 12:
60 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 871.581081
If we subtract 0 from 60, we 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.

Advancing to step 13:
74 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 871.58108108
Subtracting 592 from 600 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 871.58108108 with a remainder of 8e-09.
