We're dividing 683961 by 74 
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 683961.

Step 1:
74 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 74

On to step 2:
If we divide 68 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 0 from 68.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 68, then repeat: 683 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 683 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 666 from 683, we get 17.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 179 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 179 2 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 92.0
Deduct 148 from 179 and we're left with 31.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 316 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 316 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 20.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 924.0
If we subtract 296 from 316, we get 20.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 201 / 74

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 74 fits into 201 2 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9242.0
If we subtract 148 from 201, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 530 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9242.7
If we subtract 518 from 530, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
74 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9242.71
Subtracting 74 from 120 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
74 goes into 460 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9242.716
If we subtract 444 from 460, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9242.7162
Subtracting 148 from 160 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 74 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9242.71621
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 74 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
460 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9242.716216
Subtracting 444 from 460 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
74 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 9242.7162162
Subtracting 148 from 160 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 120 by 74, we get 1 and a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9242.71621621
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 74 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 9242.71621621 and a remainder of 4.6e-08.
