We divide 417987 by 70
We're looking to find how many times 70 goes into 417987.

Step 1:
70 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 41 / 70

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 41 by 70, we get 0 with a remainder of 41.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 41, we end up with 41.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 417 / 70

Going ahead to step 3:
417 divided by 70 is 5 with a remainder of 67.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 350 from 417, we get 67.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 679 / 70

Advancing to step 4:
679 divided by 70 is 9 with a remainder of 49.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtract 630 from 679 to get 49.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 498 / 70

On to step 5:
The number 70 fits into 498 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 597.0
If we subtract 490 from 498, we get 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 70

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 87 by 70, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5971.0
If we take 70 away from 87, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 170 by 70, we get 2 and a remainder of 30.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5971.2
If we subtract 140 from 170, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 300 by 70, we get 4 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5971.24
Deduct 280 from 300 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 200 by 70, we get 2 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5971.242
Subtracting 140 from 200 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 600 by 70, we get 8 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5971.2428
Subtracting 560 from 600 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
70 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5971.24285
Subtracting 350 from 400 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.

On to step 12:
When dividing 500 by 70, we get 7 with a remainder of 10.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5971.242857
Subtracting 490 from 500 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 13:
70 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5971.2428571
If we subtract 70 from 100, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
300 divided by 70 is 4 with a remainder of 20.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5971.24285714
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 280 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5971.24285714, and the remainder is 2e-08.
