We divide 378973 by 74
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 378973.

On to step 1:
74 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 goes into 37 0 times with a remainder of 37.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 37 to get 37.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 378 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 378 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 370 from 378 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 89 by 74, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Deduct 74 from 89 and we're left with 15.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 157 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
157 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 512.0
Subtract 148 from 157 to get 9.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 93 / 74

On to step 6:
74 can be fit into 93 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5121.0
Subtract 74 from 93 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 190 2 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5121.2
If we subtract 148 from 190, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 74 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5121.25
If we subtract 370 from 420, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 9:
74 can be fit into 500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5121.256
Deduct 444 from 500 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
560 divided by 74 is 7 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5121.2567
If we subtract 518 from 560, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 420 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5121.25675
Subtracting 370 from 420 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
74 goes into 500 6 times with a remainder of 56.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5121.256756
Subtract 444 from 500 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 560 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5121.2567567
If we take 518 away from 560, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
420 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5121.25675675
If we subtract 370 from 420, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5121.25675675 and a remainder of 5e-08.
