We look at the division of 717497 by 71 
Our goal is to divide 717497 by 71.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 71 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 71 / 71

On to step 2:
71 goes into 71 1 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 71 from 71 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 7 / 71

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 71 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 71

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 74 by 71, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 101.0
If we take 71 away from 74, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 39 / 71

On to step 5:
When dividing 39 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 39.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1010.0
If we take 0 away from 39, we end up with 39.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 397 / 71

Moving on to step 6:
71 goes into 397 5 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10105.0
Deduct 355 from 397 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
420 divided by 71 is 5 with a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 10105.5
If we take 355 away from 420, we end up with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 650 by 71, we get 9 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 10105.59
If we take 639 away from 650, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 110 by 71, we get 1 with a remainder of 39.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10105.591
Subtract 71 from 110 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 71 fits into 390 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10105.5915
Deduct 355 from 390 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 350 by 71, we get 4 with a remainder of 66.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10105.59154
If we subtract 284 from 350, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 12:
71 goes into 660 9 times with a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10105.591549
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 639 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 210 by 71, we get 2 with a remainder of 68.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10105.5915492
Subtract 142 from 210 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
71 goes into 680 9 times with a remainder of 41.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10105.59154929
If we take 639 away from 680, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 10105.59154929, and the remainder is 4.1e-08.
