When dividing 74 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 74.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 74 to get 74.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 740 / 988

Step 3:
When dividing 740 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 740.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 740, we get 740.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 740 and continue with: 7405 / 988

Advancing to step 4:
988 can be fit into 7405 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 489.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 489 after subtracting 6916 from 7405.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 489, then repeat: 4890 / 988

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 4890 by 988, we get 4 and a remainder of 938.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 74.0
Subtracting 3952 from 4890 leaves us with 938.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 938 and continue with: 9382 / 988

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 988 fits into 9382 9 times, leaving a remainder of 490.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 749.0
Subtracting 8892 from 9382 leaves us with 490.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 490 and continue: 4905 / 988

Step 7:
988 can be fit into 4905 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 953.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7494.0
If we subtract 3952 from 4905, we get 953.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 953 and continue with: 9537 / 988

Advancing to step 8:
988 can be fit into 9537 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 645.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74949.0
Subtract 8892 from 9537 to get 645.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6450, and continue the process.

Step 9:
6450 divided by 988 is 6 with a remainder of 522.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 74949.6
Deduct 5928 from 6450 and we're left with 522.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 5220 by 988, we get 5 and a remainder of 280.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74949.65
The remainder is 280 after subtracting 4940 from 5220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
2800 divided by 988 is 2 with a remainder of 824.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74949.652
The remainder is 824 after subtracting 1976 from 2800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8240, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 988 fits into 8240 8 times, leaving a remainder of 336.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74949.6528
If we subtract 7904 from 8240, we get 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3360, and continue the process.

Step 13:
988 goes into 3360 3 times with a remainder of 396.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74949.65283
If we take 2964 away from 3360, we end up with 396.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3960, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 3960 by 988, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74949.652834
Subtracting 3952 from 3960 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.

Going ahead to step 15:
988 goes into 80 0 times with a remainder of 80.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74949.652834
Deduct 0 from 80 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
800 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 800.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74949.652834
The remainder is 800 after subtracting 0 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8000, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 74949.652834 and a remainder of 8e-07.
