Let's divide 72786944 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 72786944 can be divided by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 74

Step 2:
If we divide 72 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 72, then repeat: 727 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
74 goes into 727 9 times with a remainder of 61.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 666 from 727 and we're left with 61.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 61 and continue with: 618 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 618 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 98.0
Subtract 592 from 618 to get 26.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 266 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
266 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 983.0
Deduct 222 from 266 and we're left with 44.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 449 / 74

On to step 6:
74 goes into 449 6 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9836.0
Deduct 444 from 449 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 54 / 74

Moving on to step 7:
74 can be fit into 54 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 98360.0
Subtracting 0 from 54 leaves us with 54.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 54, then carry on: 544 / 74

Moving on to step 8:
74 can be fit into 544 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 983607.0
If we take 518 away from 544, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 983607.3
If we take 222 away from 260, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 10:
74 goes into 380 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 983607.35
If we take 370 away from 380, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 11:
74 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 983607.351
Subtracting 74 from 100 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
74 can be fit into 260 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 983607.3513
Subtract 222 from 260 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
74 can be fit into 380 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 983607.35135
If we take 370 away from 380, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 74 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 983607.351351
Deduct 74 from 100 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 74 fits into 260 3 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 983607.3513513
Subtract 222 from 260 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 380 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 983607.35135135
If we take 370 away from 380, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final result is 983607.35135135 with a remainder of 1e-08.
