255259 divided by 74 
We want to figure out the number of times 255259 can be divided by 74.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 255 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
74 goes into 255 3 times with a remainder of 33.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 222 from 255 to get 33.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 332 / 74

Step 4:
If we divide 332 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtracting 296 from 332 leaves us with 36.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 365 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 365 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 69.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 344.0
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 296 from 365.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 699 / 74

Step 6:
The number 74 fits into 699 9 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3449.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 666 from 699.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
330 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3449.4
Subtract 296 from 330 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 74 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3449.44
If we subtract 296 from 340, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3449.44 with a balance of 0.044.
