We look at the division of 18881024 by 974 
We want to divide 18881024 by 974.

Moving on to step 1:
974 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 974

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 974 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 188 / 974

Step 3:
The number 974 fits into 188 0 times, leaving a remainder of 188.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 188, we end up with 188.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 188 and repeat the process: 1888 / 974

Step 4:
When dividing 1888 by 974, we get 1 with a remainder of 914.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 974 from 1888 and we're left with 914.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 914, then repeat: 9141 / 974

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 974 fits into 9141 9 times, leaving a remainder of 375.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19.0
Deduct 8766 from 9141 and we're left with 375.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 375, then repeat: 3750 / 974

Let's proceed to step 6:
3750 divided by 974 is 3 with a remainder of 828.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 193.0
Deduct 2922 from 3750 and we're left with 828.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 828, then carry on: 8282 / 974

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 8282 by 974, we get 8 with a remainder of 490.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1938.0
Deduct 7792 from 8282 and we're left with 490.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 490 and repeat the process: 4904 / 974

Let's proceed to step 8:
974 can be fit into 4904 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19385.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 4870 from 4904.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 340 by 974, we get 0 and a remainder of 340.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19385.0
The remainder is 340 after subtracting 0 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 3400 by 974, we get 3 with a remainder of 478.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19385.03
Deduct 2922 from 3400 and we're left with 478.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4780, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 4780 by 974, we get 4 with a remainder of 884.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19385.034
Deduct 3896 from 4780 and we're left with 884.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8840, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 8840 by 974, we get 9 with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19385.0349
If we subtract 8766 from 8840, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
974 goes into 740 0 times with a remainder of 740.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19385.0349
If we take 0 away from 740, we end up with 740.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7400, and continue the process.

Step 14:
974 goes into 7400 7 times with a remainder of 582.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19385.034907
The remainder is 582 after subtracting 6818 from 7400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5820, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
974 goes into 5820 5 times with a remainder of 950.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19385.0349075
Subtract 4870 from 5820 to get 950.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
974 can be fit into 9500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 734.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19385.03490759
If we take 8766 away from 9500, we end up with 734.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7340, and continue the process.

Our division results in 19385.03490759 with a remaining 7.34e-07.
