We're dividing 879885 by 74 
We want to divide 879885 by 74.

Step 1:
8 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
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

Step 2:
74 goes into 87 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 74 from 87 leaves us with 13.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 139 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 74 fits into 139 1 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 74 from 139 to get 65.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 65, then repeat: 658 / 74

Step 4:
74 can be fit into 658 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtract 592 from 658 to get 66.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 66, then repeat: 668 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
668 divided by 74 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1189.0
Subtract 666 from 668 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 74

Step 6:
74 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11890.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
250 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 11890.3
If we subtract 222 from 250, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 8:
74 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 58.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11890.33
If we take 222 away from 280, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11890.33 with a remaining 0.058.
