We look at the division of 850491 by 74 
Our goal is to divide 850491 by 74.

Advancing to step 1:
74 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 85 / 74

Step 2:
74 goes into 85 1 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 74 from 85, we get 11.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 110 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 74 fits into 110 1 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 74 away from 110, we end up with 36.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 364 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 364 4 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 114.0
Deduct 296 from 364 and we're left with 68.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 68 and continue with: 689 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 689 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 23.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1149.0
Subtract 666 from 689 to get 23.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 231 / 74

On to step 6:
If we divide 231 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11493.0
If we take 222 away from 231, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
74 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11493.1
Deduct 74 from 90 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
160 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11493.12
If we subtract 148 from 160, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11493.121
If we subtract 74 from 120, we 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.

Moving on to step 10:
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: 11493.1216
Subtract 444 from 460 to 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.

Step 11:
The number 74 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11493.12162
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 12:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11493.121621
If we take 74 away from 120, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
460 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11493.1216216
Subtract 444 from 460 to 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.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 160 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11493.12162162
If we take 148 away from 160, we end up 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.

Our division results in 11493.12162162 with a remaining 1.2e-08.
