We're dividing 169741 by 1 
Our goal is to divide 169741 by 1.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 1, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 1 from 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 6 / 1

On to step 2:
The number 1 fits into 6 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 6 from 6 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 1

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 9 by 1, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 169.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 9 from 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 1

On to step 4:
When dividing 7 by 1, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1697.0
Subtracting 7 from 7 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 4 / 1

On to step 5:
4 divided by 1 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 16974.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 4 from 4.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 1 / 1

Step 6:
1 goes into 1 1 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 169741.0
Subtracting 1 from 1 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 169741.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 169741.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 169741.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
