We divide 473883 by 74
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 473883.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 47 0 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 47, we end up with 47.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 473 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 473 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 29.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 444 from 473 leaves us with 29.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 298 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 298 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 64.0
Subtract 296 from 298 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
28 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 640.0
If we take 0 away from 28, we end up with 28.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 283 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
74 goes into 283 3 times with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6403.0
Subtract 222 from 283 to get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
74 can be fit into 610 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6403.8
Subtracting 592 from 610 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
74 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6403.82
Subtract 148 from 180 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6403.824
Subtracting 296 from 320 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
74 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6403.8243
If we subtract 222 from 240, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6403.82432
Deduct 148 from 180 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
74 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6403.824324
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 296 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
240 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6403.8243243
If we take 222 away from 240, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
74 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6403.82432432
If we subtract 148 from 180, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6403.82432432, with a leftover of 3.2e-08.
