We divide 42003402 by 974
We want to divide 42003402 by 974.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 974 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 974

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 42 by 974, we get 0 and a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 42, we get 42.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 420 / 974

Advancing to step 3:
974 can be fit into 420 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 420.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 420, we end up with 420.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 420 and repeat the process: 4200 / 974

Let's proceed to step 4:
4200 divided by 974 is 4 with a remainder of 304.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 304 after subtracting 3896 from 4200.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 304 and continue: 3043 / 974

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 3043 by 974, we get 3 and a remainder of 121.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
Subtract 2922 from 3043 to get 121.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 121 and continue with: 1214 / 974

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 1214 by 974, we get 1 with a remainder of 240.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 431.0
Deduct 974 from 1214 and we're left with 240.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 240, then repeat: 2400 / 974

Let's proceed to step 7:
974 goes into 2400 2 times with a remainder of 452.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4312.0
Deduct 1948 from 2400 and we're left with 452.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 452, then repeat: 4522 / 974

Step 8:
974 can be fit into 4522 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 626.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43124.0
Subtracting 3896 from 4522 leaves us with 626.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 974 fits into 6260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 416.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43124.6
The remainder is 416 after subtracting 5844 from 6260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

Step 10:
974 can be fit into 4160 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 264.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43124.64
Subtracting 3896 from 4160 leaves us with 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
2640 divided by 974 is 2 with a remainder of 692.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43124.642
If we take 1948 away from 2640, we end up with 692.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6920, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
974 can be fit into 6920 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 102.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43124.6427
Subtracting 6818 from 6920 leaves us with 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
974 can be fit into 1020 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43124.64271
Subtracting 974 from 1020 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
460 divided by 974 is 0 with a remainder of 460.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43124.64271
Subtracting 0 from 460 leaves us with 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
4600 divided by 974 is 4 with a remainder of 704.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 43124.6427104
Subtract 3896 from 4600 to get 704.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7040, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
974 can be fit into 7040 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 222.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43124.64271047
The remainder is 222 after subtracting 6818 from 7040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2220, and continue the process.

Our division results in 43124.64271047 with a remaining 2.22e-07.
