We're dividing 147874 by 99 
Our goal is to divide 147874 by 99.

Step 1:
The number 99 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 99

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 99, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 147 / 99

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 147 by 99, we get 1 and a remainder of 48.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 99 from 147 and we're left with 48.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 488 / 99

On to step 4:
99 goes into 488 4 times with a remainder of 92.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 92 after subtracting 396 from 488.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 92, then repeat: 927 / 99

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 927 by 99, we get 9 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 149.0
Subtracting 891 from 927 leaves us with 36.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 364 / 99

Advancing to step 6:
The number 99 fits into 364 3 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1493.0
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 297 from 364.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Step 7:
99 can be fit into 670 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1493.6
Subtracting 594 from 670 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
760 divided by 99 is 7 with a remainder of 67.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1493.67
Subtract 693 from 760 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 99 fits into 670 6 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1493.676
If we take 594 away from 670, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
760 divided by 99 is 7 with a remainder of 67.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1493.6767
Subtract 693 from 760 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
99 can be fit into 670 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1493.67676
Subtracting 594 from 670 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 99 fits into 760 7 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1493.676767
Subtracting 693 from 760 leaves us with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 670 by 99, we get 6 with a remainder of 76.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1493.6767676
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 594 from 670.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
99 can be fit into 760 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1493.67676767
Subtract 693 from 760 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1493.67676767, with a leftover of 6.7e-08.
