742687 divided by 71 
Let's see how many times 71 fits into 742687.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 71

Step 2:
If we divide 74 by 71, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 71 from 74 to get 3.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 32 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 32 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 32.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 32, we get 32.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 326 / 71

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 326 by 71, we get 4 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 104.0
If we subtract 284 from 326, we get 42.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 428 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 428 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1046.0
If we take 426 away from 428, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 71

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 27 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10460.0
Subtract 0 from 27 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 270 by 71, we get 3 with a remainder of 57.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10460.3
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 213 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Step 8:
71 can be fit into 570 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10460.38
Subtracting 568 from 570 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 20 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10460.38
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
200 divided by 71 is 2 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10460.3802
Deduct 142 from 200 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 11:
71 can be fit into 580 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10460.38028
Deduct 568 from 580 and we're left 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.

On to step 12:
71 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10460.380281
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 71 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 490 by 71, we get 6 and a remainder of 64.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10460.3802816
If we take 426 away from 490, 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.

Moving on to step 14:
71 can be fit into 640 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10460.38028169
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 639 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 10460.38028169, with a leftover of 1e-09.
