408743 ÷ 71 
We want to figure out the number of times 408743 can be divided by 71.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 71

Step 2:
When dividing 40 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 408 / 71

On to step 3:
408 divided by 71 is 5 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 355 from 408, we get 53.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 53, then repeat: 537 / 71

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 537 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtract 497 from 537 to get 40.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 404 / 71

On to step 5:
If we divide 404 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 575.0
Subtract 355 from 404 to get 49.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 49 and continue with: 493 / 71

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 493 by 71, we get 6 and a remainder of 67.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5756.0
If we take 426 away from 493, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
71 goes into 670 9 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5756.9
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 639 from 670.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 310 by 71, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5756.94
If we take 284 away from 310, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
260 divided by 71 is 3 with a remainder of 47.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5756.943
If we subtract 213 from 260, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
71 can be fit into 470 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5756.9436
Deduct 426 from 470 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 11:
440 divided by 71 is 6 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5756.94366
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 426 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5756.94366 with a remaining 1.4e-05.
