We're dividing 838678 by 74 
Our goal is to divide 838678 by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
8 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 83 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
74 goes into 83 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 74 from 83, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 98 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 74 from 98, we get 24.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 246 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 246 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 113.0
Subtracting 222 from 246 leaves us with 24.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 247 / 74

On to step 5:
The number 74 fits into 247 3 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1133.0
If we take 222 away from 247, we end up with 25.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 258 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
74 goes into 258 3 times with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 11333.0
If we take 222 away from 258, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 360 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 64.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11333.4
If we take 296 away from 360, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
74 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11333.48
Subtract 592 from 640 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 9:
74 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11333.486
Subtract 444 from 480 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 360 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 64.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11333.4864
If we subtract 296 from 360, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
74 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11333.48648
Subtract 592 from 640 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 12:
74 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11333.486486
Deduct 444 from 480 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 360 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11333.4864864
Subtracting 296 from 360 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
74 can be fit into 640 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11333.48648648
If we take 592 away from 640, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11333.48648648 with a remaining 4.8e-08.
