Let's divide 552403 by 74
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 552403.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 55 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 55 leaves us with 55.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 552 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 552 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 34.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 518 from 552, we get 34.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 344 / 74

Step 4:
When dividing 344 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74.0
If we subtract 296 from 344, we get 48.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 480 / 74

On to step 5:
If we divide 480 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 746.0
Subtracting 444 from 480 leaves us with 36.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 363 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 363 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7464.0
Subtracting 296 from 363 leaves us with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 670 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7464.9
If we take 666 away from 670, 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7464.9
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 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 9:
74 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7464.905
Deduct 370 from 400 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 300 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7464.9054
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
40 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7464.9054
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7464.905405
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.

On to step 13:
74 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7464.9054054
Subtracting 296 from 300 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
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: 7464.9054054
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.

After the division, we end up with 7464.9054054 and a remainder of 4e-08.
