We're dividing 56442 by 74 
Let's see how many times 74 fits into 56442.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 56 / 74

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 56 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 0 from 56.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 56, then repeat: 564 / 74

On to step 3:
74 can be fit into 564 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 518 from 564 leaves us with 46.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 464 / 74

Step 4:
464 divided by 74 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 76.0
Subtract 444 from 464 to get 20.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 202 / 74

Let's proceed to step 5:
74 can be fit into 202 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 762.0
Subtracting 148 from 202 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
74 goes into 540 7 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 762.7
If we take 518 away from 540, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
74 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 72.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 762.72
If we take 148 away from 220, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 720 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 762.729
Subtracting 666 from 720 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 74 fits into 540 7 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 762.7297
Deduct 518 from 540 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 762.72972
Deduct 148 from 220 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 720 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 54.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 762.729729
Subtracting 666 from 720 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 540 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 762.7297297
Subtracting 518 from 540 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 220 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 72.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 762.72972972
Deduct 148 from 220 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 762.72972972, and the remainder is 7.2e-08.
