55690 ÷ 74 
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 55690.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
55 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 55.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 55 and we're left with 55.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 556 / 74

On to step 3:
74 can be fit into 556 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 518 from 556 and we're left with 38.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 389 / 74

Step 4:
If we divide 389 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 75.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 370 from 389.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 190 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
The number 74 fits into 190 2 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 752.0
Deduct 148 from 190 and we're left 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.

On to step 6:
The number 74 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 752.5
Deduct 370 from 420 and we're left with 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 7:
The number 74 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 752.56
Subtract 444 from 500 to 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 560 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 752.567
Subtract 518 from 560 to 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 420 by 74, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 752.5675
Subtract 370 from 420 to 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 10:
When dividing 500 by 74, we get 6 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 752.56756
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 444 from 500.
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 11:
If we divide 560 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 42.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 752.567567
Subtract 518 from 560 to 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.

Moving on to step 12:
74 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 752.5675675
Subtracting 370 from 420 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
500 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 752.56756756
Subtract 444 from 500 to 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 752.56756756 with a balance of 5.6e-08.
