We look at the division of 74837851 by 988 
We're looking to find how many times 988 goes into 74837851.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 988, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 988

Step 2:
988 can be fit into 74 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 74, we end up with 74.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 748 / 988

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 988 fits into 748 0 times, leaving a remainder of 748.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 748 leaves us with 748.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 748, then carry on: 7483 / 988

Moving on to step 4:
7483 divided by 988 is 7 with a remainder of 567.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 6916 away from 7483, we end up with 567.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 567, then repeat: 5677 / 988

On to step 5:
If we divide 5677 by 988, we get 5 and a remainder of 737.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 75.0
If we take 4940 away from 5677, we end up with 737.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 737, then repeat: 7378 / 988

Moving on to step 6:
7378 divided by 988 is 7 with a remainder of 462.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 757.0
Subtract 6916 from 7378 to get 462.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 462, then carry on: 4625 / 988

On to step 7:
When dividing 4625 by 988, we get 4 with a remainder of 673.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7574.0
Subtracting 3952 from 4625 leaves us with 673.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 673, then repeat: 6731 / 988

Going ahead to step 8:
6731 divided by 988 is 6 with a remainder of 803.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 75746.0
Subtracting 5928 from 6731 leaves us with 803.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8030, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
988 can be fit into 8030 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 126.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 75746.8
If we subtract 7904 from 8030, we get 126.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 1260 by 988, we get 1 with a remainder of 272.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 75746.81
The remainder is 272 after subtracting 988 from 1260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2720, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
988 can be fit into 2720 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 744.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 75746.812
The remainder is 744 after subtracting 1976 from 2720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7440, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
988 can be fit into 7440 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 524.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 75746.8127
If we take 6916 away from 7440, we end up with 524.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5240, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 5240 by 988, we get 5 with a remainder of 300.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 75746.81275
If we subtract 4940 from 5240, we get 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 3000 by 988, we get 3 with a remainder of 36.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 75746.812753
If we subtract 2964 from 3000, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 15:
988 goes into 360 0 times with a remainder of 360.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 75746.812753
If we take 0 away from 360, we end up with 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 3600 by 988, we get 3 with a remainder of 636.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 75746.81275303
The remainder is 636 after subtracting 2964 from 3600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6360, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 75746.81275303 with a balance of 6.36e-07.
