Let's divide 10734231 by 74
We want to figure out the number of times 10734231 can be divided by 74.

On to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 10 / 74

Going ahead to step 2:
10 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 107 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
74 can be fit into 107 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 74 away from 107, we end up with 33.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 333 / 74

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 333 4 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 296 from 333, we get 37.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 374 / 74

Step 5:
When dividing 374 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 4.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145.0
Subtracting 370 from 374 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
42 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1450.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 423 / 74

Step 7:
74 goes into 423 5 times with a remainder of 53.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14505.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 370 from 423.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 531 / 74

On to step 8:
The number 74 fits into 531 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 145057.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 518 from 531.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 130 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 56.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 145057.1
If we subtract 74 from 130, we 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.

Step 10:
74 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 42.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145057.17
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:
74 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 145057.175
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 12:
When dividing 500 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 56.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 145057.1756
Subtracting 444 from 500 leaves us 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.

On to step 13:
74 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 145057.17567
Subtracting 518 from 560 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 14:
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: 145057.175675
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 370 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 500 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 56.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 145057.1756756
If we take 444 away from 500, we end up 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.

On to step 16:
If we divide 560 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 42.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145057.17567567
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 518 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 145057.17567567, and the remainder is 4.2e-08.
