Let's divide 162383 by 74
We want to divide 162383 by 74.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 162 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
74 can be fit into 162 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 148 from 162 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 143 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 can be fit into 143 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtracting 74 from 143 leaves us with 69.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 69, then repeat: 698 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
74 goes into 698 9 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 219.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 666 from 698.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 323 / 74

On to step 6:
If we divide 323 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2194.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 296 from 323.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
270 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 48.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2194.3
If we take 222 away from 270, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 480 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2194.36
If we take 444 away from 480, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
74 can be fit into 360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2194.364
Deduct 296 from 360 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 640 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2194.3648
Deduct 592 from 640 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
74 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2194.36486
If we subtract 444 from 480, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2194.364864
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 296 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 13:
74 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2194.3648648
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 592 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 14:
74 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2194.36486486
If we take 444 away from 480, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2194.36486486 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
