We're dividing 18877 by 74 
We want to figure out the number of times 18877 can be divided by 74.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
18 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 0 from 18.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 188 / 74

Step 3:
The number 74 fits into 188 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 148 from 188 to get 40.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 407 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 407 5 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 370 from 407.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 377 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 74 fits into 377 5 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 255.0
If we subtract 370 from 377, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
70 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 70.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 255.0
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 700 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 255.09
Deduct 666 from 700 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
74 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 255.094
Subtract 296 from 340 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
440 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 255.0945
Subtract 370 from 440 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
700 divided by 74 is 9 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 255.09459
If we take 666 away from 700, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 340 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 255.094594
Subtracting 296 from 340 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 440 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 255.0945945
Subtracting 370 from 440 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 74 fits into 700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 255.09459459
If we subtract 666 from 700, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 255.09459459, with a leftover of 3.4e-08.
