We divide 64988 by 74
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 64988.

Going ahead to step 1:
74 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 64 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
64 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 64.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 64, we get 64.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 64 and continue: 649 / 74

On to step 3:
649 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 592 from 649 leaves us with 57.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 57 and continue with: 578 / 74

On to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 578 7 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 87.0
If we subtract 518 from 578, we get 60.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 60 and repeat the process: 608 / 74

Step 5:
74 goes into 608 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 878.0
If we take 592 away from 608, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 6:
74 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 878.2
If we take 148 away from 160, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
74 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 878.21
Subtract 74 from 120 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 8:
74 can be fit into 460 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 878.216
Subtract 444 from 460 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
74 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 878.2162
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 148 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 878.21621
Deduct 74 from 120 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
74 can be fit into 460 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 878.216216
Subtract 444 from 460 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
74 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 878.2162162
Subtract 148 from 160 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 878.21621621
Subtracting 74 from 120 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 878.21621621, with a leftover of 4.6e-08.
