Let's divide 740701 by 49
We want to figure out the number of times 740701 can be divided by 49.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 49 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 49

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 74 by 49, we get 1 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 49 from 74 and we're left with 25.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 250 / 49

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 250 by 49, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 245 away from 250, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 57 / 49

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 49 fits into 57 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 151.0
Deduct 49 from 57 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 80 / 49

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 80 by 49, we get 1 with a remainder of 31.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1511.0
Subtract 49 from 80 to get 31.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 311 / 49

Let's proceed to step 6:
49 can be fit into 311 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 15116.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 294 from 311.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 170 by 49, we get 3 and a remainder of 23.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15116.3
Subtract 147 from 170 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
230 divided by 49 is 4 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15116.34
If we take 196 away from 230, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 49 fits into 340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15116.346
Subtracting 294 from 340 leaves us 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 10:
49 can be fit into 460 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15116.3469
Subtracting 441 from 460 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 190 by 49, we get 3 and a remainder of 43.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15116.34693
If we subtract 147 from 190, we get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 430 by 49, we get 8 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15116.346938
Subtracting 392 from 430 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 13:
49 can be fit into 380 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15116.3469387
Subtract 343 from 380 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 14:
49 can be fit into 370 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15116.34693877
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 343 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 15116.34693877 and a remainder of 2.7e-08.
