Let's divide 712887 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 712887 can be divided by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
74 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 74

Step 2:
The number 74 fits into 71 0 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 71, we end up with 71.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 71 and repeat the process: 712 / 74

On to step 3:
When dividing 712 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 46.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 666 away from 712, we end up with 46.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 468 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 468 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 96.0
If we subtract 444 from 468, we get 24.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 248 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 248 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 963.0
Deduct 222 from 248 and we're left with 26.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 267 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
74 goes into 267 3 times with a remainder of 45.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9633.0
Deduct 222 from 267 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
450 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9633.6
Subtract 444 from 450 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 8:
74 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 9633.6
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 600 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9633.608
If we subtract 592 from 600, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
74 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9633.6081
If we take 74 away from 80, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 60 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 9633.6081
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9633.608108
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 592 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9633.6081081
If we subtract 74 from 80, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
74 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9633.6081081
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 9633.6081081 with a balance of 6e-08.
