We're dividing 742997 by 82 
We want to divide 742997 by 82.

Step 1:
When dividing 7 by 82, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 82

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 74 by 82, we get 0 and a remainder of 74.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 74, we end up with 74.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 74 and continue: 742 / 82

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 742 by 82, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 738 from 742 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 82

Step 4:
49 divided by 82 is 0 with a remainder of 49.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 90.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 499 / 82

Moving on to step 5:
499 divided by 82 is 6 with a remainder of 7.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 906.0
If we subtract 492 from 499, we get 7.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 77 / 82

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 77 by 82, we get 0 with a remainder of 77.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9060.0
Deduct 0 from 77 and we're left with 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 770 by 82, we get 9 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9060.9
Subtracting 738 from 770 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
82 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 74.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9060.93
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 246 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 82 fits into 740 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9060.939
Subtracting 738 from 740 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
20 divided by 82 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9060.939
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 82 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9060.93902
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 164 from 200.
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:
82 goes into 360 4 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9060.939024
Subtract 328 from 360 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 320 by 82, we get 3 and a remainder of 74.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9060.9390243
If we subtract 246 from 320, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 740 by 82, we get 9 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9060.93902439
Deduct 738 from 740 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 9060.93902439, with a leftover of 2e-09.
