We divide 74396098 by 259
Let's see how many times 259 fits into 74396098.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 259, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 74 / 259

On to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 259, we get 0 with a remainder of 74.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 74 to get 74.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 743 / 259

Step 3:
259 goes into 743 2 times with a remainder of 225.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 518 away from 743, we end up with 225.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 225 and continue: 2259 / 259

Step 4:
The number 259 fits into 2259 8 times, leaving a remainder of 187.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
The remainder is 187 after subtracting 2072 from 2259.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 187 and repeat the process: 1876 / 259

Let's proceed to step 5:
259 can be fit into 1876 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 287.0
If we take 1813 away from 1876, we end up with 63.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 63, then repeat: 630 / 259

Moving on to step 6:
259 goes into 630 2 times with a remainder of 112.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2872.0
The remainder is 112 after subtracting 518 from 630.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 112 and continue with: 1129 / 259

Step 7:
If we divide 1129 by 259, we get 4 and a remainder of 93.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 28724.0
If we subtract 1036 from 1129, we get 93.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 93 and continue: 938 / 259

Step 8:
When dividing 938 by 259, we get 3 with a remainder of 161.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 287243.0
Deduct 777 from 938 and we're left with 161.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 1610 by 259, we get 6 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 287243.6
Deduct 1554 from 1610 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
259 can be fit into 560 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 287243.62
Deduct 518 from 560 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
259 goes into 420 1 times with a remainder of 161.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 287243.621
Subtracting 259 from 420 leaves us with 161.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
1610 divided by 259 is 6 with a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 287243.6216
Subtracting 1554 from 1610 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 560 by 259, we get 2 with a remainder of 42.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 287243.62162
If we subtract 518 from 560, we 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.

On to step 14:
420 divided by 259 is 1 with a remainder of 161.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 287243.621621
Subtract 259 from 420 to get 161.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
259 can be fit into 1610 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 287243.6216216
If we subtract 1554 from 1610, we 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.

Going ahead to step 16:
The number 259 fits into 560 2 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 287243.62162162
Deduct 518 from 560 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.

The final result is 287243.62162162 with a remainder of 4.2e-08.
