Let's divide 8742484 by 562
We want to figure out the number of times 8742484 can be divided by 562.

Step 1:
The number 562 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 562

Let's proceed to step 2:
562 can be fit into 87 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 87.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 87 leaves us with 87.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 87, then repeat: 874 / 562

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 874 by 562, we get 1 with a remainder of 312.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 562 from 874 to get 312.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 312, then repeat: 3122 / 562

On to step 4:
562 goes into 3122 5 times with a remainder of 312.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 2810 from 3122 to get 312.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 312 and repeat the process: 3124 / 562

Let's proceed to step 5:
3124 divided by 562 is 5 with a remainder of 314.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 155.0
If we take 2810 away from 3124, we end up with 314.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 314 and continue: 3148 / 562

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 3148 by 562, we get 5 with a remainder of 338.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1555.0
Deduct 2810 from 3148 and we're left with 338.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 338 and continue: 3384 / 562

Step 7:
562 can be fit into 3384 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15556.0
If we take 3372 away from 3384, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 562 fits into 120 0 times, leaving a remainder of 120.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15556.0
If we subtract 0 from 120, we get 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
562 can be fit into 1200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15556.02
Subtract 1124 from 1200 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 562 fits into 760 1 times, leaving a remainder of 198.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15556.021
Subtracting 562 from 760 leaves us with 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
562 goes into 1980 3 times with a remainder of 294.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15556.0213
If we subtract 1686 from 1980, we get 294.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2940, and continue the process.

Step 12:
562 goes into 2940 5 times with a remainder of 130.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15556.02135
Subtract 2810 from 2940 to get 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 562 fits into 1300 2 times, leaving a remainder of 176.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15556.021352
Subtracting 1124 from 1300 leaves us with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 1760 by 562, we get 3 with a remainder of 74.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15556.0213523
If we take 1686 away from 1760, we end up with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 15:
562 can be fit into 740 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 178.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15556.02135231
Deduct 562 from 740 and we're left with 178.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1780, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 15556.02135231, with a leftover of 1.78e-07.
