We look at the division of 12740900 by 888 
We want to divide 12740900 by 888.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 888, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 888

Step 2:
888 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 12, we get 12.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 127 / 888

Moving on to step 3:
127 divided by 888 is 0 with a remainder of 127.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 127 to get 127.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 127, then repeat: 1274 / 888

On to step 4:
If we divide 1274 by 888, we get 1 and a remainder of 386.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 888 from 1274 and we're left with 386.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 386, then carry on: 3860 / 888

Moving on to step 5:
888 goes into 3860 4 times with a remainder of 308.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 3552 away from 3860, we end up with 308.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 308, then carry on: 3089 / 888

Advancing to step 6:
3089 divided by 888 is 3 with a remainder of 425.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 143.0
If we subtract 2664 from 3089, we get 425.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 425 and continue: 4250 / 888

Step 7:
The number 888 fits into 4250 4 times, leaving a remainder of 698.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1434.0
The remainder is 698 after subtracting 3552 from 4250.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 698 and repeat the process: 6980 / 888

Moving on to step 8:
The number 888 fits into 6980 7 times, leaving a remainder of 764.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14347.0
Deduct 6216 from 6980 and we're left with 764.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7640, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
888 can be fit into 7640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 536.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14347.8
If we subtract 7104 from 7640, we get 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Step 10:
5360 divided by 888 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14347.86
If we subtract 5328 from 5360, we 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 11:
The number 888 fits into 320 0 times, leaving a remainder of 320.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14347.86
If we take 0 away from 320, we end up with 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 3200 by 888, we get 3 and a remainder of 536.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 14347.8603
If we subtract 2664 from 3200, we get 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
5360 divided by 888 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14347.86036
If we take 5328 away from 5360, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 888 fits into 320 0 times, leaving a remainder of 320.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14347.86036
Subtracting 0 from 320 leaves us with 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 888 fits into 3200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 536.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14347.8603603
Deduct 2664 from 3200 and we're left with 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
When dividing 5360 by 888, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14347.86036036
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 5328 from 5360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 14347.86036036 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
