Let's divide 229792 by 74
We're looking to find how many times 74 goes into 229792.

Let's proceed 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
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 74

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 22 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 22.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 22.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 229 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 229 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 222 from 229 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 77 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
77 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
Deduct 74 from 77 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
74 goes into 39 0 times with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 310.0
If we take 0 away from 39, we end up with 39.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 392 / 74

On to step 6:
When dividing 392 by 74, we get 5 with a remainder of 22.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3105.0
If we subtract 370 from 392, we get 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 7:
The number 74 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3105.2
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 148 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed 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: 3105.29
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 666 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 540 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3105.297
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 220 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3105.2972
Subtract 148 from 220 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 720 by 74, we get 9 and a remainder of 54.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3105.29729
Subtract 666 from 720 to get 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:
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: 3105.297297
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.

On to step 13:
220 divided by 74 is 2 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3105.2972972
Subtract 148 from 220 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
74 goes into 720 9 times with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3105.29729729
Deduct 666 from 720 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 3105.29729729 with a remaining 5.4e-08.
