740699 divided by 12 
Our goal is to divide 740699 by 12.

On to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 12, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 12

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 74 by 12, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 72 from 74 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 20 / 12

On to step 3:
If we divide 20 by 12, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61.0
If we subtract 12 from 20, we get 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 12

Step 4:
12 can be fit into 86 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 617.0
Subtract 84 from 86 to get 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 12

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 12 fits into 29 2 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6172.0
If we subtract 24 from 29, we get 5.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 59 / 12

On to step 6:
59 divided by 12 is 4 with a remainder of 11.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61724.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 48 from 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 110 by 12, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 61724.9
If we subtract 108 from 110, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 12 fits into 20 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 61724.91
If we take 12 away from 20, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 9:
12 goes into 80 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61724.916
Subtract 72 from 80 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
80 divided by 12 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61724.9166
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 61724.9166 with a remaining 8e-05.
