502939 ÷ 74 
We want to divide 502939 by 74.

On to step 1:
74 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 50 / 74

Step 2:
50 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 502 / 74

On to step 3:
If we divide 502 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 58.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 444 from 502, we get 58.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 589 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 589 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 71.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 67.0
If we take 518 away from 589, we end up with 71.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 713 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
74 goes into 713 9 times with a remainder of 47.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 679.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 666 from 713.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 479 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
74 goes into 479 6 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6796.0
If we take 444 away from 479, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
74 goes into 350 4 times with a remainder of 54.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6796.4
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 296 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 74 fits into 540 7 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6796.47
Deduct 518 from 540 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 220 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6796.472
Subtracting 148 from 220 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6796.4729
Deduct 666 from 720 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 11:
74 can be fit into 540 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6796.47297
Subtract 518 from 540 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 220 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6796.472972
If we take 148 away from 220, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 720 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 54.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6796.4729729
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 666 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
74 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6796.47297297
Deduct 518 from 540 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6796.47297297, with a leftover of 2.2e-08.
