We divide 640746 by 862
We want to divide 640746 by 862.

Let's proceed to step 1:
6 divided by 862 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 64 / 862

Going ahead to step 2:
862 goes into 64 0 times with a remainder of 64.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 64 to get 64.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 64 and repeat the process: 640 / 862

Moving on to step 3:
862 can be fit into 640 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 640.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 640 leaves us with 640.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 640, then repeat: 6407 / 862

On to step 4:
862 goes into 6407 7 times with a remainder of 373.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 6034 from 6407 and we're left with 373.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 373, then carry on: 3734 / 862

Going ahead to step 5:
862 goes into 3734 4 times with a remainder of 286.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74.0
Subtract 3448 from 3734 to get 286.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 286, then carry on: 2866 / 862

Moving on to step 6:
2866 divided by 862 is 3 with a remainder of 280.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 743.0
Subtract 2586 from 2866 to get 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 2800 by 862, we get 3 with a remainder of 214.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 743.3
If we subtract 2586 from 2800, we get 214.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
862 can be fit into 2140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 416.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 743.32
Subtracting 1724 from 2140 leaves us with 416.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 4160 by 862, we get 4 with a remainder of 712.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 743.324
If we take 3448 away from 4160, we end up with 712.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7120, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
862 can be fit into 7120 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 224.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 743.3248
If we subtract 6896 from 7120, we get 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 862 fits into 2240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 516.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 743.32482
Subtracting 1724 from 2240 leaves us with 516.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
5160 divided by 862 is 5 with a remainder of 850.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 743.324825
Subtracting 4310 from 5160 leaves us with 850.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
862 can be fit into 8500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 742.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 743.3248259
Subtract 7758 from 8500 to get 742.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
862 goes into 7420 8 times with a remainder of 524.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 743.32482598
Deduct 6896 from 7420 and we're left with 524.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 743.32482598 with a balance of 5.24e-07.
