We divide 74264572 by 500
We want to figure out the number of times 74264572 can be divided by 500.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 500 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 500

On to step 2:
The number 500 fits into 74 0 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 74 and we're left with 74.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 742 / 500

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 742 by 500, we get 1 with a remainder of 242.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 500 from 742 to get 242.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 242 and continue with: 2426 / 500

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 2426 by 500, we get 4 with a remainder of 426.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 2000 from 2426 and we're left with 426.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 426, then repeat: 4264 / 500

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 4264 by 500, we get 8 with a remainder of 264.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 148.0
If we take 4000 away from 4264, we end up with 264.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 264, then carry on: 2645 / 500

Let's proceed to step 6:
2645 divided by 500 is 5 with a remainder of 145.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1485.0
The remainder is 145 after subtracting 2500 from 2645.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 145 and continue with: 1457 / 500

Step 7:
1457 divided by 500 is 2 with a remainder of 457.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14852.0
Subtract 1000 from 1457 to get 457.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 457, then repeat: 4572 / 500

Moving on to step 8:
4572 divided by 500 is 9 with a remainder of 72.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 148529.0
Subtract 4500 from 4572 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 720 by 500, we get 1 and a remainder of 220.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 148529.1
If we subtract 500 from 720, we get 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
500 can be fit into 2200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 200.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 148529.14
The remainder is 200 after subtracting 2000 from 2200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

Step 11:
500 goes into 2000 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 148529.144
If we take 2000 away from 2000, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 148529.144 with a balance of 0.0.
