We're dividing 996164 by 74 
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 996164.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 74

On to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 99 1 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 74 from 99 and we're left with 25.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 256 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
74 goes into 256 3 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 222 away from 256, we end up with 34.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 341 / 74

Step 4:
If we divide 341 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 45.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 134.0
If we subtract 296 from 341, we get 45.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 456 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 456 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1346.0
Subtracting 444 from 456 leaves us with 12.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 124 / 74

Let's proceed to step 6:
74 can be fit into 124 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 13461.0
If we subtract 74 from 124, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 74 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13461.6
If we subtract 444 from 500, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
74 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13461.67
Deduct 518 from 560 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
74 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13461.675
Subtracting 370 from 420 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 500 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13461.6756
Deduct 444 from 500 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 560 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 42.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13461.67567
If we take 518 away from 560, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 12:
74 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13461.675675
If we take 370 away from 420, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
74 can be fit into 500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13461.6756756
Subtracting 444 from 500 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
74 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13461.67567567
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 518 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 13461.67567567, with a leftover of 4.2e-08.
