263508 ÷ 74 
We want to divide 263508 by 74.

On to step 1:
74 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 26 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 26 leaves us with 26.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 263 / 74

Step 3:
74 can be fit into 263 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 222 from 263 and we're left with 41.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 415 / 74

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 415 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we subtract 370 from 415, we get 45.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 450 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 450 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 356.0
Deduct 444 from 450 and we're left with 6.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 68 / 74

Moving on to step 6:
74 can be fit into 68 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3560.0
If we subtract 0 from 68, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 680 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3560.9
If we take 666 away from 680, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 74 fits into 140 1 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3560.91
Deduct 74 from 140 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
74 can be fit into 660 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3560.918
Subtract 592 from 660 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
74 goes into 680 9 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3560.9189
Deduct 666 from 680 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3560.91891
Deduct 74 from 140 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 660 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 68.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3560.918918
If we take 592 away from 660, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 680 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3560.9189189
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 666 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 140 by 74, we get 1 and a remainder of 66.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3560.91891891
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 74 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3560.91891891 with a remaining 6.6e-08.
