7442985 ÷ 74 
We want to divide 7442985 by 74.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 74 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 can be fit into 74 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 74 from 74.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 74

Let's proceed to step 3:
4 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 42 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 0 from 42.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 429 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 429 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 59.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1005.0
Deduct 370 from 429 and we're left with 59.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 598 / 74

Going ahead to step 6:
74 can be fit into 598 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10058.0
If we take 592 away from 598, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 65 / 74

Step 7:
74 goes into 65 0 times with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100580.0
Subtract 0 from 65 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.

Advancing to step 8:
74 can be fit into 650 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 100580.8
Deduct 592 from 650 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
74 can be fit into 580 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 100580.87
Deduct 518 from 580 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 620 8 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 100580.878
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 280 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 58.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 100580.8783
Subtract 222 from 280 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 580 7 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 100580.87837
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.

Moving on to step 13:
74 can be fit into 620 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 100580.878378
Subtract 592 from 620 to 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.

Step 14:
280 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 58.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 100580.8783783
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 222 from 280.
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 15:
If we divide 580 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 62.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 100580.87837837
Deduct 518 from 580 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 100580.87837837 and a remainder of 6.2e-08.
