Let's divide 48683 by 74
Our goal is to divide 48683 by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
74 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 74

Step 2:
48 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 486 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
74 can be fit into 486 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 444 from 486.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 428 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 428 5 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 65.0
Subtract 370 from 428 to get 58.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 58 and repeat the process: 583 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
74 goes into 583 7 times with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 657.0
Subtract 518 from 583 to get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
650 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 657.8
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 592 from 650.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 580 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 657.87
Subtracting 518 from 580 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 620 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 657.878
Deduct 592 from 620 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 280 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 657.8783
Deduct 222 from 280 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 580 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 62.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 657.87837
If we subtract 518 from 580, we get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 620 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 657.878378
If we subtract 592 from 620, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
280 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 657.8783783
Deduct 222 from 280 and we're left with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
74 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 657.87837837
Subtracting 518 from 580 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Our division results in 657.87837837 with a remaining 6.2e-08.
