We're dividing 726086 by 74 
We want to divide 726086 by 74.

Advancing to step 1:
74 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
74 can be fit into 72 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 72 and continue with: 726 / 74

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 726 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 666 from 726.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 60, then repeat: 600 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 600 by 74, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 98.0
Subtracting 592 from 600 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
88 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 981.0
Subtract 74 from 88 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 146 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 146 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9811.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 74 from 146.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9811.9
Deduct 666 from 720 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
540 divided by 74 is 7 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9811.97
Subtracting 518 from 540 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9811.972
If we take 148 away from 220, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 720 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 54.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9811.9729
If we take 666 away from 720, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 540 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9811.97297
Subtracting 518 from 540 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9811.972972
If we take 148 away from 220, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
74 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9811.9729729
If we subtract 666 from 720, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
74 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9811.97297297
Subtract 518 from 540 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 9811.97297297 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
