288714 divided by 74 
Let's see how many times 74 fits into 288714.

On to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 288 / 74

Step 3:
74 goes into 288 3 times with a remainder of 66.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 222 from 288 and we're left with 66.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 66 and continue: 667 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 goes into 667 9 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 39.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 666 from 667.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 74

On to step 5:
74 can be fit into 11 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 390.0
Subtract 0 from 11 to get 11.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 114 / 74

Let's proceed to step 6:
74 goes into 114 1 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3901.0
If we take 74 away from 114, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
400 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3901.5
If we take 370 away from 400, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 300 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3901.54
If we subtract 296 from 300, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3901.54
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
74 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3901.5405
If we take 370 away from 400, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 11:
74 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3901.54054
If we take 296 away from 300, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 40 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3901.54054
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
400 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3901.5405405
Subtracting 370 from 400 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 300 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3901.54054054
If we subtract 296 from 300, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3901.54054054 and a remainder of 4e-09.
