We divide 561887 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 561887 can be divided by 74.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 56 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
74 goes into 56 0 times with a remainder of 56.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 0 from 56.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 56, then repeat: 561 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 561 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 518 from 561 leaves us with 43.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 438 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 goes into 438 5 times with a remainder of 68.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 75.0
Deduct 370 from 438 and we're left with 68.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 68 and repeat the process: 688 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
74 can be fit into 688 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 759.0
Subtracting 666 from 688 leaves us with 22.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 227 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
74 can be fit into 227 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7593.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 222 from 227.
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 7:
74 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7593.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 500 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7593.06
If we subtract 444 from 500, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 560 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7593.067
If we subtract 518 from 560, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 420 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7593.0675
Subtracting 370 from 420 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
500 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7593.06756
If we take 444 away from 500, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
74 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7593.067567
If we take 518 away from 560, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 420 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7593.0675675
If we take 370 away from 420, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 500 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7593.06756756
If we subtract 444 from 500, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7593.06756756 and a remainder of 5.6e-08.
