We look at the division of 879280 by 74 
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 879280.

Moving on to step 1:
74 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 74

On to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 87 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 74 from 87 and we're left with 13.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 139 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
139 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 65.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 74 from 139, we get 65.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 65 and continue with: 652 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
652 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 60.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118.0
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 592 from 652.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 60, then carry on: 608 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 608 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1188.0
Deduct 592 from 608 and we're left with 16.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 160 / 74

Step 6:
74 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11882.0
Deduct 148 from 160 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11882.1
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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 460 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 11882.16
Subtracting 444 from 460 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 160 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11882.162
Subtracting 148 from 160 leaves us 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 10:
120 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 46.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11882.1621
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.

On to step 11:
74 can be fit into 460 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11882.16216
If we subtract 444 from 460, we 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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11882.162162
Subtracting 148 from 160 leaves us 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 13:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11882.1621621
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.

Step 14:
The number 74 fits into 460 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11882.16216216
If we take 444 away from 460, 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.

Our division results in 11882.16216216 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
