We look at the division of 978287 by 74 
Our goal is to divide 978287 by 74.

On to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 74

On to step 2:
74 can be fit into 97 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 74 from 97 to get 23.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 238 / 74

Step 3:
74 can be fit into 238 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtracting 222 from 238 leaves us with 16.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 162 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 162 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 132.0
Subtract 148 from 162 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 148 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
148 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1322.0
Subtracting 148 from 148 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 7 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
74 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13220.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 70 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13220.0
Subtracting 0 from 70 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 700 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13220.09
If we subtract 666 from 700, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 340 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13220.094
Deduct 296 from 340 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13220.0945
If we subtract 370 from 440, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 700 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13220.09459
If we subtract 666 from 700, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
74 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13220.094594
If we subtract 296 from 340, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 440 5 times, leaving a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13220.0945945
If we take 370 away from 440, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
74 goes into 700 9 times with a remainder of 34.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13220.09459459
If we take 666 away from 700, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 13220.09459459, and the remainder is 3.4e-08.
