974416 divided by 2 
We want to divide 974416 by 2.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 can be fit into 9 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 8 from 9 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 2

On to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 2, we get 8 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we subtract 16 from 17, we get 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 2

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 14 by 2, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 487.0
Subtracting 14 from 14 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 2

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 4 by 2, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4872.0
Subtract 4 from 4 to get 0.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 1 / 2

Going ahead to step 5:
1 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48720.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 2

Step 6:
16 divided by 2 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 487208.0
Subtract 16 from 16 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 487208.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 487208.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 487208.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
