Let's divide 746879 by 65
We want to divide 746879 by 65.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 65, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 65

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 divided by 65 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 65 from 74 leaves us with 9.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 96 / 65

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 96 by 65, we get 1 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 65 from 96 leaves us with 31.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 318 / 65

On to step 4:
If we divide 318 by 65, we get 4 and a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 114.0
Deduct 260 from 318 and we're left with 58.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 587 / 65

Advancing to step 5:
65 can be fit into 587 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1149.0
Deduct 585 from 587 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 65

Let's proceed to step 6:
29 divided by 65 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11490.0
Deduct 0 from 29 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
290 divided by 65 is 4 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11490.4
Deduct 260 from 290 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
65 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11490.44
Deduct 260 from 300 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11490.44 with a remaining 0.04.
